I am going to setup an online shop to sell products to overseas markets (say, USA, UK etc). Appreciate suggestions for the right payment gateway to receive the money from the buyers? Can I open bank account overseas also? regards

If you want to accept online payment try 2CO (www.2checkout.com) for accepting credit cards on your site. you can add other options us paypal later, you can also use western union transfers or TT wired payment directly to your account, but it all depends on the type of your business.

You can try to call up Payment Asia - www.paymentasia.com. My boss has just decided to sign up with them as they work directly with the local bank in HK.

Please refer to the payment systems established by eBay, Yahoo or many other individual online shops which can searched by keying in 'payment gateway' in any major search engines.

It is worth considering just using a payment gateway like PayPal which is compatible across currencies, languages etc. It is also a very safe way to operate an online store and one which we encourage. I am the Marketing Manager of Terapad, a free online website generator that comes complete with an online store, capable of supporting daily sales in excess of ¢G30,000 and we use PayPal across the network of stores on the Terapad.com network. Best of luck with your venture.

Thank you Joshua. I took a look of your company Terapad and it seems good. I will refer this to my boss as he is now thinking on setting up a eShop. Just wonder how much around it will cost and also will you help us to link up with our payment gateway now? The one we are using is called PaymentAsia. FYI.

In fact, if you are selling accessories in a small scale, the service of ebay, taobao or alibaba would be a good alternative to be considered, leveraging their popularity and established infrastructure, it would be easier to get business going.

FYI,I have just found that Bank of East Asia has Payment Gateway services too, and the pricing is not as expensive as I thought. Hope it helps.

When you just setup your online store, use Paypal. It handles all the trouble works for you, including security. Moreover, there is no monthly fee. When your store grows big and you feel Paypal too expensive, change another one. You may see my storefront: http://www.chinese-way.com/products-page/

Try to use PayPal as your payment gateway. If you feel uncomfortable to use it, then leave it there as you don't have to pay anything to start using it.

Yes, i suggest to use Paypal too. It just takes a while to register to a new account. And you can do it all by yourself! I heard that Paypal has a new promo to new users. Such a pity that I'm not a new member anymore. You may google paypal or check out https://www.paypal-business.com.hk/index.php?forumid=001

The first thing to do is to gather all possible information by researching about each payment processor you are considering. Compare the features and decide what all you would require for your business. In a nutshell do your homework properly, and then make a query list for the salesperson to make sure that all your doubts and confusions are taken care of.First Data Merchant Credit Card Processing Services http://www.fdis-wolverine.com/

GUYS I JUST WANT TO WARN YOU, THIS IPAYDNA IS A WELL KNOWN SCAM, three of my best associates were not paid last year at the end they held over $70000.00 in payments for one of them with excuses, reported false processing, they sometimes offer to take care of shipping products when it is about shippable goods, well don't do that you will lose your customers, they send fake stuff, after a while and held all your money for the chargebacks and refunds for fake products, and for sportbooks they wait until you have enough on the account to then keep all the funds. They always delay payments, so fraud, keep an eye on these guys they have been banned in many other forums.

referring to the statement by marcus, it seems like you are spamming in most of forums related to payment gateway, talking bad about this ipaydna. ( you are referring to http://www.ipaydna.biz ?) don't have any experience with them but i do have some friends working with them. everything is okay. no problem so far. only my 2cents. (i'm using paypal by the way.. simple and the best way to receive payments, since i'm involved in small size business.. long live paypal!)
