It looks cheaper than most of the payment gateway solutions offered by most banks (i.e. Chase Paymentech). And there doesn't seem to be a monthly fee.

- snprbob86 18y agoIf I understand correctly, you need to pay a percentage and base transaction fee to process credit cards anyway. This service from Amazon bakes their cut into those two charges already. The Amazon charges are cheaper than competing services, but how do they compare to doing it yourself? Is that even an option? This service sounds highly attractive except for the requiring of an Amazon account. Hopefully, that problem can be mitigated somehow. I'd have to have a good hard think.
- timf 18y agoI think doing it yourself is an option. You can integrate with something like authorize.net which I see mentioned a lot. But they, in turn, integrate with what are the I guess actual processors: http://www.authorize.net/solutions/resellersolutions/resellerprogram/processorlist/ http://www.authorize.net/solutions/resellersolutions/reselle... (note that I have no direct experience here yet)
- timf 18y agoI'm confused now, at the link above Chase paymenttech is listed as a processor connection. But they are listed as an authorize.net reseller at this link? http://www.authorize.net/reseller_dir.asp?page_id=148721&reseller=46256 http://www.authorize.net/reseller_dir.asp?page_id=148721&... I guess I have a lot to understand yet, sorry.
