Aaaah, but did you check the FAQ section?

"Therefore, a payor may refund himself for any reason and with no questions asked up to 30 days after a payment is made."

-Just asking for major problems there.

"For each payment you receive, we will charge $0.15 plus 15% of the total transaction amount."

-OUCH!

I wasn't trying to rip it apart. I've just found that trying to get setup to receive payments (of any type or method) on the internet can become a real shell game. With all the ones that try to trick you into expensive contracts, etc. some may even liken it to "Three Card Monty".

Personally, I like to see the numbers right out there. No hidden costs, etc. Deal straight with me, or I'm outta there.

I was just pointing out the real bottom line for whoever might be looking into their services.
