    PPP does not work in US so if you plan to sell to other countries you will need another option. I offer PayPal and Google Checkout. PP is used much more than GC.

    Whatever you decide, good luck with sales!

    Banks Automated Clearing System is national rather than international

    For Europe I need IBAN and SWIFTBIC, and in principle the European transfer is free.

    For US a wire transfer to Europe is prohibitively expensive, stick to Paypal.

    I have offered PPpay for over 3 years and it has been used 4 times, all for small sales so I have never bothered to draw it out as the fees would be a bit prohibitive.
    But I think the more ways you can offer buyers to pay the better. Ive even taken 1st class stamps.

    Look at it this way 4 sales would cost at least 80p with Paypal probally more, to draw your dosh on PPPAY would cost 75p.

    As a seller, I offer Paypal for UK and international sales, and for UK sales I also offer the option of cheques and postal orders.
    As a buyer, when I first started using online auctions to get things on ebay years ago, I used a mix of cheque and ebay, though now I only use paypal, because of the buyer-protection angle, after I had a to-do where I had bought from another site using my debit card, and never got the thing I ordered (just lots of excuses), and it took me months and lots of paperwork, to claim my money back.

    [QUOTE=kozersky;1379379]We need MoneyBookers (Skrill) as a payment source. It is my belief that when MoneyBookers (Skrill) is integrated into eBid, our sales will increase.[/QUOTE

    Will money bookers refund my payment if item doesant arrive or gets damaged in post?

    As much as I hate to say it, PP is probably still most popular payment method (imo as a UK seller)
