We looked around for this kind of thing for some events we did. Nothing was really very nice. In the end we got a credit card merchant account (also for billing for our service) and knocked up a very simple booking system which takes people's details and makes them a nice invoice.
(Tip: make sure it's easy for people to register multiple attendees in one transaction!)
PayPal scares me, as it's not a bank and the agreement you 'sign' effectively says they can keep your money if their automated systems don't like the look of you. This may be inconvenient.
NOTE: We're in the UK, dealing with UK organisations.
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoThanks for that very useful. I've added the note that we're in the UK. PayPal also bothers me. If they think something is suspicious then they just freeze everything and hold your money, and it's your problem to sort it out. I don't like how that can work, especially since the detector is probably automatic, and sensitive. The horror stories are, well, horrific.
