I've had a Paypal account since Sept 2000 and forgot about it. Needless to say it didn't get used very often. I just got done updating my info and I'm good to go. Paypal is much better than credit cards because it's less expensive and that helps the bottom line.

It's not cheaper than credit cards if you run more than a few a month. It depends on your volume, their interest rate can be at least 1% higher than the service we use for example.

We need to revisit the credit card option. The minimum fee is now $5.00 plus $5.00 for the PCI. I do not think PayPal charges the PCI to the merchant, but I am not sure. I talked with TSYS today and if you want to cancel, they charge $250.00, but it is not in the terms of use document that is in my account library. Was that part of the agreement Dom? It appears to me that PayPal may be less expensive, I only process about 10 credit cards per year.

There is no PCI charge anymore. It's $5.00 plus $5.00 if you have the mobile unit. Yes, the contract is on the paper you sign.
