Moneybookers is a fairly decent alternative. I assume you're talking about mainland Europe where credit card penetration is less prevalent.
Moneybookers interface is terrible, and they will expose your customers to this horrible interface. Their customer service seems to be confused but I've never heard horror stories.
There are payment solutions geared towards European customers so that you can accept bank transfers, etc.
- philhippus 14y ago*Moneybookers has been rebranded, now called Skrill.
- kintamanimatt 14y agoSo they have! I knew they were transitioning, but it appears they're just about done with the change. Skrill is such an awful name IMHO!
- gadders 14y ago"Skrilla" is slang for money: www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=skrilla See also the lyrics for "Cash in My Pocket" by Wiley: > All I really want is money in my pocket > Cash in my hand, oh, skrilla in my wallet > All I really want is money in my pocket > Cash in my hand and skrilla in my wallet, yeah http://www.metrolyrics.com/cash-in-my-pocket-lyrics-wiley.html http://www.metrolyrics.com/cash-in-my-pocket-lyrics-wiley.ht... NB: This doesn't stop it still being an awful name, but it might explain why they chose it.
- kintamanimatt 14y agoThat's absolutely hilarious! They should have just stuck with their original brand, which wasn't all that terrible either!
- WiseWeasel 14y agoCan't we agree that both names are equally horrible?
- kintamanimatt 14y agoYes!
