Worldpay.com
They are a pain to work with, they delay payments by a month, and they're expensive but they do multi-currency. This is important for me in Australia, because it means a customer in the US can buy in US dollars, and their credit card is billed in US dollars, with exactly that amount (no mysterious currency fluctuations). Same for Euros.
Their take is about 4.5% (better than PayPal etc when you take into account its hidden currency conversion spread).
Every so often I look around for an alternative for my situation ("there must be something better than this"), but so far they're the best in this.
- dasil003 18y agoBraintree does it. We're taking EUR and GBP in addition to USD. The API is also far far simpler than any of the SOAP crap the last generation of market leaders foisted upon us.
- gommm 18y agoBut the problem of braintree is that it only works with us merchant accounts so for people like the parent who is in Australia or me whose company is in HK it doesn't work... I found that finding good payment gateways is very easy for a us company but rather hard when you're in other countries
- inovica 18y agoHi there. We use Worldpay. Just a note - they ARE flexible on their rates after you have been with them a while. We reduced ours to 3.3% with just one phone call, so it might be worth you giving that a go
