I have TemplatesFlow business and I sell websites.

I use 2 payement gateways here - pay pall express and 2 check out. Paypall works great for me and my clients bu 2 check out takes up to 4 hours to verify transaction, or even more.

But I sell virtual product (websites) and my clients wish to get them immediately.

Any suggestions how I could make these folks process orders faster for me?

Tell them your problem and see if they have a solution in place.

Alternatively, find another payment processor (or threaten to...that often gets people's asses moving.)

maybe i'll try to complain on them. bug generally i do not belive in a great sucess for this action, as they usually say - this is our service and we need some time to ........

if not 2 check out - what else would be nice to trade in US?

I don't know about they coverage in the US, but I've used www.moneybooker.com some times.

I even rember that they didn't passed chargeback to they customers, but that was under some conditions.

the problem is that in some situations on several payement gateways i've heard that were such things when client have already received his virtual product but his money were hold by gateway, and then he called back mones - so as result - product for free

any suggestions to avoid this?

All Moneybookers payments are Irreversible...
Once you are paid, you stay paid! Moneybookers is a "hard" currency and transactions are NOT reversible. Credit cards are a "soft" currency because transactions can be reversed. This leaves the merchant in a disadvantageous position because it is usually not practical to retrieve the goods once control has been given to the buyer.Instant and irreversible payments are thus advantageous features of Moneybookers payments.
NO charge back risk for merchants
We do not pass on charge backs to the merchant but absorb them ourselves. We reserve, however, the right to withdraw this policy without notice for any particular merchant who we determine is not exercising due diligence or is operating in a way which results in higher than normal exposure.

I never used them as a merchant, so I cannot say, but this catched my eye...

**happy_2b_kot** · 09-13-2007, 02:11 PM

anyone knows are they popular in US? as i kannot find any comments on them

**jbladeus** · 09-16-2007, 05:31 PM

Moneybookers are good, however are based in europe and have a small US merchant base.

**happy_2b_kot** · 09-17-2007, 10:02 AM

And I am looking on US market...

**zaragozza** · 10-12-2007, 07:01 AM

Find something that supports Visa, Mastercard and AmericanExpress

I recently switched merchant accounts from linkpoint - their gateway fee was just too much. I looked around for a new one who didn't want any upfront fees to get a new account setup (hard to find). I was visiting 1849webhosting and saw a link on their menu about low cost merchant accounts. I went with that one and cut my gateway fee in half.

**thegateways** · 10-16-2007, 12:15 AM

Check with worldpay, moneybookers, chronopay, multicards, protx, 2checkout, googlecheckout ( US/UK ).

we are already using 2checkout and it is not so good as we wish it to be, thinking of googlecheckout.

anyone have comments on googlecheckot?

**fitnfree** · 10-21-2007, 10:31 AM

I love Google Checkout -- in fact, since I've implemented it, I've been making more sales.

**happy_2b_kot** · 10-25-2007, 09:52 AM

and how long does it takes to make a transaction with them?

**fitnfree** · 10-25-2007, 10:30 AM

It's instantaneous -- they e-mail you as soon as someone makes a purchase. In my case, I need to ship an item, so I then go into my control panel, click the "Shipped" button on the particular order and they automatically send the buyer a receipt! It's great. I really love it.

**happy_2b_kot** · 10-26-2007, 11:40 AM

hmm... and I need to wait 4 hours to make sure that 2CO will not cancel transaction. thats awfull... will do all to make my boss using Google

**zaragozza** · 10-31-2007, 01:35 PM

I would vote for paypal and google payements - imho the most functional and fast working
