Paypal Alternatives
18 years ago
Hi Everyone!
In my ongoing attempts to start doing comissions, I have at last reached the stage where I figure out how to get paid :P
My first thoughts ran to PayPal, but for various reasons it looks like that's not going to pan out. Their shady business practices nonwithstanding, they have a no-spooge policy that might render the comissions I do kind of boring :P Even if the policy only applies if someone rats me out, I don't feel comfortable violating their terms of service.
Right now I'm looking at MerchantInc.com, but does anyone know of any other viable alternatives? (Viable here meaning "Free to set up" and "Available to residents of Canada").
Thanks a lot!

Nothing says that Paypal _has_ to know that you're using their service for adult material. If you're paid and it's of a type 'service' and subject line says 'artwork commission' - they won't be any the wiser.
For customers within Canada, there's also Interac-by-Mail as a possibility for them.
The sender has to pay a fee (in addittion to exchange rates), but that would had been more or less the case with Paypal -- except that with Paypal, the receiver is gets *less* money because they take a cut. (Paypal users often ask for a percentage extra to cover this.)
