| 353563 | 2005-05-09 06:37:00 | Hi All I am working on a website that currently uses paypal for online orders, The owners want to alter this so that the customers will have a choice of paypal or their merchant bank account to pay money into. Now I know very little about paypal, but the websites shopping cart seems to be hosted by paypal so obviously I can't give customers the option to pay into the merchant bank acc from this, how should I do this -will I need to install a new shopping cart on the website that gives customers the option (when they wish to pay) of using paypal or the merchant bank account -Is there any real reason to keep the paypal option? does it provide anything the merchant bank account doesn't -are there any premade scripts out there that would handle this - preferably one that I can running Thanks |

| 353565 | 2005-05-09 07:18:00 | I have been looking there, but as the site I am working on has only got the paypal shopping cart it looks like there will be a lot of work to put a replacement shopping cart on, I was hoping that someone who has used one could recommend one they have used in the past basically I have a backend dB in place so i just need something that will attach to it and take part number, price, description and quantity add them all up and then transact the payment through paypal or the merchant bank |

| 353567 | 2005-05-09 08:12:00 | Yes but they charge per transaction, and then the credit card people take a cut I think they want to cut down the money going to the middle man ps mejoebloggs - what happened to your website? |

| 353568 | 2005-05-09 10:44:00 | I am just starting my own hosting company, and have been a bit busy, so havn't transferred my own website yet. I will get it up soon. Yes but they charge per transaction, and then the credit card people take a cut I think they want to cut down the money going to the middle man True! The blighters, I have never looked at it that way. Paypal take about 3% I think, so with paypal + (merchant account ?) extra fees, it could be quite a bit. Not sure about that though... |
