If you would rather not have a traditional merchant account, PayPal may be the solution for you. PayPal will work directly with Miva Merchant ecommerce software and costs nothing to sign up for a Perconal Account. PayPal lets any business or consumer with an email address securely, conveniently, and cost-effectively send and receive payments online using their credit card or bank account. The PayPal network builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards to create a global, real-time payment solution. PayPal delivers a product ideally suited for small businesses, online merchants, individuals and others currently underserved by traditional payment mechanisms. PayPal was recently acquired by eBay, and is the 2002 SIIA Codie Awards winner for "Best eCommerce Solution" and is recognized by PC Magazine as one of "The Top 100 Web Sites." |

Unlike
traditional merchant accounts, with "Pay for Play",
you try out the service before you make a commitment.
The annual fee is not charged until you have been
using the service for 60 days. No cancellation fees. One
small annual fee of $49, a percentage rate of
3.75% and a transaction fee of 50 cents. The Service Charge is a monthly fee that includes: Gateway Cost and Set-up, monthly Gateway Fee with Authorize.net and Online Statement service. This is included FREE of charge with "Pay for Play". The three-tier system is convenient. The merchant account dynamically grows according to the seller's needs. Each month the seller receives a statement showing the month's activity and the total fees that would be charged under all three plans. At any time, the seller can visit the site and click a button to upgrade to the next tier. |
