PayPal Alternative Best to Hit the paypal issues

Both this one and Gaypal are nothing to get excited about... I wish Bitcoin had caught on... That would been awesome... :'D Anybody agree? ;D
 
The problem with PayPal is that it is so widely accepted. You can pay almost everything with it - some shops/people even take payments exclusively from PP. The next real alternative would be Moneybookers/Skrill i think (correct me if I'm wrong)...
 
250 countries?
how many countries exist in this world?

Pretty sure there are only 196

there are however a few dozen territories and colonies that if counted could bring the number up to something close to 250

You're right.
 
Moneybookers is a pretty good service, along with PayPay as well. If you need credit processing or 3rd party paypal payment acceptance, Plimus is a good choice too.
 
This could be a great alternative for all sorts of businesses.
I'm going to try them out but proceed cautiously.

FUNDING YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE
You can easily exchange your real or electronic money for OKPAY and
vice versa. Please note the currently available convenient methods to
deposit to and withdraw from an OKPAY account: Bank Wire, E-currency,
Certified Exchange Partners. More depositing and withdrawal options are
on the way!

Any unused funds can be withdrawn from an OKPAY account at any time by
means of the tools used for depositing.

Hmm if you are the original poster you must be idiot to be asking this.

-LUXURY
 
ya this is good for me so far
 
OKPAY was going very well for me, but are having "technical" problems at the time and cant accept debit and credit cards.. Also they withdraw to the bank fees are crayy
 
I am with okpay as well, but could never reach them on the phone when I have a problem or question.

They seem sort of oke, but they really need to clear up that customer service.

If you are handling other peoples money, as in online banking as they are, they need to hire real phone support.
 
The problem with all these alternatives is that nobody uses them. Also as stated above their support blows. Takes weeks to receive a response sometimes and even then it's a one or two line response.
 
The best alternative to paypal is merchant accounts. Everybody has some kind of CC or debit card. Paypal is just easier to get a seller account with, thats why so many people flock to it. Anyone with a real e-commerce business should accept credit cards without paypal.

Paypal is fine for person to person, but if your business relies on it you will end up sorry.

All these alternatives also need the buyer to sign up, and that can be a deterrent.

You are kinda right but the thing here is in Online business NOT all clients wish to revel their credit or debit card details with any merchant. So they feel it safe to use paypal to pay.

I can tell you from my own experience if you don't offer paypal payments you lose at-least 50% of your business online.

Thanks to the OP for sharing this sounds promising. I have already sign up there and verified almost all type of verification they require.

Waiting for 2 verification done as they are just initiated.
