What are some eCommerce alternatives to PayPal?

sonotleet asked:


Let’s say I have a business selling air guitars. And I want to make a website where people buy air guitars from me.

What steps should I take to move the proper amount of money from their credit/debit card into my account?

I want to avoid using third party companies. (Except for credit card companies themselves.)

Clearly, PayPal does this. So how can I?

Also: I am mainly looking for how to code this, but the general theory would be nice too.

    There are a number of alternatives to PayPal. CNN Money offers a page listing a few of them – see below link. However, be very careful as commissions may steeper than what PayPal charges!
