Payments - Yahoo Paydirect, PayPal, Nochex?

Which would be best for a UK business taking payments not exceeding £100?

Hi,
I would like to take credit card payments for my online store (under development) but I am not sure which is best. I am not expecting to receive more than £100 per order.

To get a marchant account and rent a PDQ machine I have to had been in business for 2 years so I can't go for that option.

I have just had a look at Yahoo Paydirect - it looks good, the fees are 2% and 50p per CC transaction and 50p for yahoo paydirect transactions.

Nochex and Paypal are reasonable - Nochex charge 99p or 1% when withdrawing.

Paypal from what I understand charge from 0.7 to 2.9% + 50p.

Which of these (or others) is popular? Its all a bit confusing and I think I will have to print out all the charges and fees info.

Advice appreciated.

Paypal, is probably your best bet, very easy to setup and get international verification, for both buying and selling.
