2co.com worth it? credit card processing

[L146705]

thinking of parting with some cash $50usd to get a 2co account. Do you guys have any experiance of them or think it is worth it. I already have a paypal account but want something where people without paypal can pay via a credit card. the amount of transactions will be low. If you can suggest other comanies that would be good too.

I use 2co but i think it kinda sucks because when someone buys from your shopping cart it takes about a week for the money to be transfer to your bank account ...Also i had a order for about 180 dollars but after they(2co) took there fee it only got aboutj 140 dollars...Now i go with google shopping cart not bad( google checkout )

just my 2cents

can't get google checkout as I am in the uk not usa based.

Oh ok...if you can i would check around..unless you dont mind waiting about a week for them to transfer money to your bank with 2co...and them taking a big fee...

I was considering them for a new project, but their points are pretty fucking high. I think the best route is actually to just get your own merchant account, and use a gateway processor of some sort. Most merchant accounts now are made for online business transactions and you can just use your own affiliate software if that's the route you'd like to go.

the banks in the uk bum you for merchant accounts, there fees are extortinate. 2co is probably better for me as I don't think I will have many transactions(1-2 a week to start off with).

2CO is ok for small orders, but not for big ones, I run a link building service and got a $1500 order, they refused to process the order for a " service like that" and I lost the client because of it!
