I've designed a lot of websites in the past, but have not had the need to take any type of payment - until now!
What I'm looking for is a payment processor that meets the following criteria, and would be really grateful if anyone could make some recommendations of which companies to look at..
1. They must offer the complete package (ie we don't have an internet merchant account, so we're looking for someone who takes payment and then makes payouts every so often)
2. Need it to look seamless - we have no problem with customers being transferred to the payment processors secure website, but we would like the payment page(s) to be customisable so they look the same as our website (basically we don't want it to be overly obvious to the customer that they have left our site, apart from the page address)
3. Preferably no monthly/yearly fees - there will be a small number of low value transactions to begin with, and although this will hopefully grow over time, we'd prefer slightly higher fees per transaction, instead of a set monthly fee and lower transaction fees.
4. Accepts payments in GBP, because we're in the UK. We're not looking at accepting other currencies.
If anyone has any recommendations I'd be really grateful - I've been looking through past posts on these forums and checking out some companies, but it's hard to tell with some of them just how much you can customise the payment pages to match your website, which is quite important for us.
If we're asking too much, then it would also be useful to know, so that we can have a rethink!
Thanks for your help,
Chris
