Payment Solutions

Not requiring membership of buyers

[someguy]

what solutions are out there that do not require buyers from ANY country to have an account?

for example:
i have a site selling credits to post items for sale.
in order to post an item a user must buy a credit.

i dont want my users to have to sign-up for anything when they purchase credits from me.

the system must also be easily integratable into my site,
and return variables with the amount of credits bought etc... so they are updated into the database automatically.

is there such a solution?!

PayPal doesn't require sign up from buyers in any countries for US merchants.

anything except paypal, seeing as how the feature is US specific.

scott mccloud uses something called bitpass. I bought his comic, then I bought a movie from nothingsostrange.com (online movie), without loggin in again. Cross-domain buying with one login. pretty trippy and easy.

did you have to create an account with bitpass or just enter you payment details and it was done?

buying on scott mccloud's site requires a bitpass account, but payin was with verisign or paypal. I used verisign. Once I had that account, I bought from those two places. I actually went back, just login once with username/pass, then you can buy from other places listed on their home page w/o logging in again.

If it matters, iStockphoto has royalty free stock photos that you can buy for $1 once logged in with BitPass. Also bought a music track for $0.50 just to see. cool.
