copied!<p>As others have mentioned the easiest way into this area is with the use of <a href="http://www.paypal.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Paypal</a>, <a href="http://www.google.com/checkout" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Google checkout</a> or <a href="http://www.nochex.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Nochex</a>. However if you intend to to a significant amount of business you may wish to look up "upgrading" to higher level site integrations services such as <a href="http://worldpay.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WorldPay</a>, <a href="http://www.netbanx.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">NetBanx (UK)</a> or <a href="http://www.neteller-group.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Neteller (US)</a>. All of these services are reasonably easy to set up. And I know that Netbanx offers convenient integration into some of the off the shelf shopping cart solutions such as <a href="http://www.intershop.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Intershop</a> (because I wrote some of them). Beyond that you are looking at direct integration with the banking systems (and their APAX systems) but thats hard and at that point you also need to prove to the Credit card companies that you are handling the credit card numbers securely (probably not worth considering if you are not taking $100k's worth per month). </p> <p>Working from 1st to last the cost/benefits are that the early options are much easier (quicker/cheaper) to set up put you pay quite high handling charges for each transaction. the later ones are much more costly to set up but you pay less in the long run.</p> <p>The other advantage of the most of the non dedicated solutions is that you don't need to keep encrypted credit card numbers secure. Thats someone else's problem :-)</p>
