I had an auction end - buyer says he wants to pay online....fine<br>
I send him to PayPal, he says he lives in Brazil and PayPal won't work for him. I said Ok lets try x.com payment, (I know they are virtually the same) same results. I send him a notice from CCNow.com.<br>
Now he wants me to use Billpoint and has yet to try the CCNow. Which is pretty straight foward just follow the link I sent him. <br>
I don't really want or need to have another account to keep track of. Is that selfish of me ?<br>
For a $9.50 item 4 days of going back and forth over how I get paid seems silly.

I have accounts with CCNow and Billpoint. Billpoint is much less expensive than CCNow and very easy to use. Plus, you get your money faster.
I haven't had occasion to use my CCNow account since last spring. And I'm glad I've found an alternative for my web site. I'm kind of surprised CCNow hasn't had to reduce its fees.

BidPay is good for international customers, too. You don't have to have an account, because they send you a Western Union money order. It costs the buyer only $5.
