This question was sent in by an AIMS member who is looking for help with finding a third-party payment processor.
"We are looking for a payment processor, and I don't like the options I have seen thus far: either they have been too bureaucratic (affiliated entitry of big banks requiring a personal guarantee), or too unreliable and possibly shady (one we have been dealing with in the US), or they don't allow customized branding (PayPal). We need to be able to accept payments from Visa, Mastercard, Amex and Discover, with the majority of our business coming from corporate users in the US, followed by Europe and Canada, and then the rest of the world.
Do you have any suggestions on reliable but fast-moving companies that provide this service?"
We've used a number of payment processors but always at the programming level. We found linkpoint.com solid, easy to use, and not too bureaucratic.
It sounds like you want a web integration solution (rather than an API). They have a product called LinkPoint Connect for that. I've never used it but you might check it out.

I had looked at BeanStream, a Victoria company, a few years ago and I think they offered a good product (http://www.beanstream.com)

Hi All,
I currently have a Canadian wGift Basket website called cranberrycorners.ca.
I am looking for a new ecommerce company.
Has anyone used Merchant Accounts.ca?
Would appreciate hearing any comments you have about their performance.
Of course I would be interested in any current info on other ecommerce companies as well.
Thanks Patti

Specialists say that credit loans help a lot of people to live the way they want, just because they can feel free to buy necessary goods. Moreover, various banks offer short term loan for different persons.
