Hey all,

Im in the very early stages of a new e-commerce site, using OpenCart. Im going through what needs to be done in my head and assume i need some sort of payment gateway to accept credit / debit cards.

Does anyone have any recommendations? This website is a bit of a punt so ideally i want it as cheap as possible incase the site folds. Is there anything else i need to consider?

Cheers
 
Thanks for the reply.

I had a look at card save, but i couldnt actually find any example fees? Can you give any numbers?

Also, am i right in thinking to accept card payments you need a payment gateway and merchant bank account? How do the fees usually work? £x setup, £y / month and z% per transaction includes everything? Its not like x% to process the payment and y% to deposit it in your merchant account and then £z fee to withdraw the funds? Sorry - im new to this!

Any other reccomendations?
 
Hey PhillyDee

Ive been shopping around (looked at: CardSave, Nochex, MoneyBookers, WorldPay, PayPoint, SagePay and PayPal) and im starting to think CardSave may be the best so thanks for the recommendation.

One query though, i was initially sold by SagePay as they * appeared* to offer a fixed £20/month fee for up to 1000 transactions / quarter. But then i think they also appear to charge for use of the IMA. Am i right or misreading the info?

What is the IMA for?

Cheers
