PAYMENT SERVICES

I just signed up for this service.
https://epay.propay.com/ebay/
I am looking forward to this alternative to PayPal,the drawback is that it's only available to powersellers. Seems they recently included bronze level powersellers to the mix, I think soon they will have a level of service that can be used for websites,that's what I'm really after to accept credit cards without a heavy initial cost to my store. kwikchains.com

Auctiva eBay store

Try http://www.paymate.com.

Unfortunately, Auctiva has yet to add support for it, so you will have to revise all your listings to offer it, for now.

It's already linked to my eBay account through ProPay. It's actually called ProPay eAuction, so all I had to do was advertise it in my listings,the buyer when they checkout will have the option of using ProPay or PayPal as payment options.

I just had a chat with eBay regarding the ProPay issue. You can revise your listing on eBay after it's submitted through Auctiva and manually select the ProPay box in the payment area. Will have to do for now, but at least it gives buyers a choice right?

I'm thinking about making up a banner to insert in my listings that says "ProPay Preferred" since eBay doesn't have one available yet, but they say it's in the works.....yeah right?

I made sure that the ProPay box is ticked when creating the profile used for my listings,so I guess I'll find out if it works next time I add a new listing to eBay with Auctiva.

Paymate is not ProPay, they are different services.

I opened The ProPay eAuction account. here is the link: https://epay.propay.com/ebay/ It has nothing to do with Paymate that I'm aware of You have to be at least a bronze level PowerSeller to sign up for this account though.

I may check into using Paymate on my eCommerce site though. ProPay is also developing a similar option for eCommerce,I'm guessing the rates will be similar to ProPay eAuction. The rates at the bronze level PowerSeller are 3.10 % + $0.30 for Visa,MC, and Discover. The rate is higher for American Express at 3.60 % + $0.30. The great thing is no monthly fees, just pay per sale which is just what I need right now instead of the $30.00 plus a month for Authorize.net etc.

Exactly...ProPay is a glorified version of PayPAL and BOTH require registration and YOUR Authorization for them to take Any or ALL of the MONEY from Your Account that You allow them access to at any time and for ANY REASON and no Reason at all...bad news for many;
just check out
www.paypalwarning.com or
www.paypalsucks.com;

Both list now, 10's of THOUSANDS of people who were ripped off by PayPal (myself included).

PayMate.com charges a flat 3% and 50 cents per transaction...done. No Registration for buyers, they can use MC-Visa-DC bing-bang-boom-done, and paymate WON'T debit Your account "automatically" at the first sign of a dispute on the part of a buyer.
Nice touch by me.

Now if only we can get HERE to add them to the Checkout/Payment Options?
