PayPal Alternatives?

[DarK_AssassiN]

I've got a new client that wants a website and logo made, but he is banned from PayPal because he got scammed and then owed PayPal $40. We're looking for alternatives but have found nothing yet. Anyone know a good one (something that excepts credit/debit cards)?

Have you tried MoneyBookers? (http://moneybookers.com)

I'm using them right new to get paid by an advertising network, you have to be 18 to use it as well so you might need to get someone else to signup for you.

Thanks Bash! ;) That looks pretty good. We'll try that tonight after I get home from school.

the best one aside from paypal is escrow.com by far

Eh.. I'm gonna go with moneybookers. I love the look of their site and so far it seems really secure (I've got to go through a bunch of verification before I can really do anything).

Escrow.com really doesn't look all that great... that's just another example of how a good looking site can get you more business :\

On that note, what the hell is Google Checkout? I've seen a couple places that except it but I don't know what it is. I thought about looking into it but that's too much work XD

It's not like PayPal. I checked into it too. It's a way to make a sort of shop that could be paid through google. In a way it is like PayPal, but it's really limited to just shopping.

But searching for an alternative I did find that google is making something called Google Wallet which IS going to be like PayPal and many are calling it the "PayPal Killer". If there was anyone who could take down PayPal it would be Google. I can't wait for it (I <3 Google).

try out www.xoom.com . have been using their services for quite some time and have had no problems as such. what i like about them is their customer service, they are very prompt in replying back to your problem

This is a good alternative to paypal that have found. Customer service is top notch, and the service is one that I find much safer than using Paypal anyway. Paypal has burnt a number of my friends and clients, and I don't wish for this to happen to me as well.
