I have been selling locally before within a small community but I have decided to enlarge my business a bit further by dealing online. I have just created a website and want people to pay majorly using sms method of payment for goods purchase from the website. basically what I am actually dealing with is e-currency online and I have well over 100 people buying from me daily alone in the uk. This are people who knows me in person. I am planning to take this people with me to form my traffic on the site.I currently conducted a survey among my current customers 70% of them told me that they can easily pay using their mobile phones through sms payment. what I need is a good merchant who could get this job done for me and who could take payment for me from most mobile network in europe and in the world. For now my focus is on this following network in Europe; T-Mobile, Orange, O2, Vodafone and more.

There are companies who can outsource revere charge sms messaging, but they will take a percentage of monthly revenues generated from sms messages. he downside is the customers bill wont always show your company as the billing agent and this can lead to people disabling this "feature" within their account. There are also a lot of scam companies using reverse billed sms messages, and this also leads to the service being blocked per account.

This could raise an issue of people not being able to pay, simply because they don't understand the procedure. At the very least offer an easy alternative.
