What is your preferences – and a GIVEAWAY for You
| July 15, 2010 | Filled under Commercial, Giveaway |
Dear customers, I was thinking to start using Merchant Account, kind of
a system which allows to get Credit Card payments.
If you compare it with PayPal, you can see 3 major differences:
- Merchant Accounts accept most Credit Cards from many countries.
- They don’t work with PayPal accounts. I mean you can’t enter your
PayPal email/password. - I, as a Seller, have better protection from PayPal based types of
fraud.
So I decided to ask a question: How tightly are you bound to your PayPal
accounts? And if so, will it be OK for you to use your PayPal card as a
Credit Card?
And to lightening this boring process to read post and reply questions…
Oh well, you know me, I really do not need a motivation for contests ;o)

Shopping Cart 
i do not have a paypal account anymore. someone used my identity to buy things with my account and it ticked me off so I closed it.
I’ve had issues with PayPal in the past too. I try to avoid using it unless it’s my only option.
Im not to bound with my paypal acct. if i find something i want and they dont accept paypal, i go ahead and use me credit/debit card. :) hope this helps a bit alla!
I am okay with just using my credit card. Whatever makes it easier for you. I love your work and will continue to purchase it. Take care.
I’m flexible. While I use my paypal account for a majority of my online purchases, I also use my regular credit card when paypal is not accepted by a particular online merchant.
I have had a merchant account in the past and it was very costly for me for the amount of sales I had. However if you are selling volume, then it can be more cost effective than Paypal.
As a buyer, I like the convenience of using my Paypal, especially if it has funds in it. If my funds are depleted, I do like the option of using my credit card. Most of the merchants I buy from (and I am big internet shopper), there are various payment option including non-PayPal credit card acceptance and Paypal. I think if you have the volume to justify a merchant account or if the pricing is as good or better than Paypal, I think it is a good idea to offer both :-)

I too, am not bound to my PayPal account. I use either CC or my PayPal card as a CC. Do what is best for you :)
I use paypal, but if you switch to merchant credit cards it would be fine with me. I truly love your patterns and always look forward to more.
I don’t use credit cards. Paypal drafts directly from my account and is my preferred method of payment
I can’t stand PayPal anymore & try not to use them.
I don’t use a credit card unless it is an emergency and paypal drafts directly from my account also so I use it.
I have used a paypal account for over 10 years. I am also a seller, using Paypal has never caused me any problems. Of course, I cannot speak for everyone!! I will continue to purchase your items using my cc, or any other way you need me to pay!! I will never stop purchasing your lovely patterns!!
I have no problem using another payment option than paypal.
I don’t have a paypal or credit card so I use cash or money order. I don’t trust a lot of things online as it is very easy for anyone to hack into anyone’s account.
I can’t say that I enjoy using PayPal but if it gives better protection to everyone concerned then I think that would be the best way to go.
I’ve used both…no preference either way.
Either way is fine with me…I have both and both work for me.
What’s new for Christmas?????
I like the convenience of usiong Pay Pal, but I use my credit card as well, so either way is fine with me. :)
Since setting up my website (www.mycrochetboutique.com) I only use my PayPal Bussiness account and use the paypal debit/credit card to purchase all my yarns and patterns. At the end of every month I have to print out my paypal statement and subtract my purchses from my sales. For me that makes it easy to pay taxes quarterly. I do also keep a folder with receipts just incase!! I have had a few customers tell me they feel safer paying via PayPal also. Keep up the great work, Betsy
I love Paypal, but I also use my cards sometimes, so I am flexible too.
I’m flexible too :) So I think just do what is best for you.
I have the paypal credit card and love it!! It is pretty much the only card I use.
I love my Paypal credit card and use it both online and in stores! Easy to keep track of purchases too.
Hi, I just found you website and love it. I recently purchased your crochet bolero pattern though Annie’s Attic. So I did a google search to find you.
To answer your question, I actually prefer to use my paypal account.
hola! saludos! no tengo cuenta pay pal , pero utilizo mis targetas de credito , y hasta ahora me resulta muy cómodo, saludos desde mexico!!!!
well i do have pay pal and i use it when i can
I can use paypal or credit card. I have used both on my purchases and in my website I have both payment methods.
I prefer to use my PayPal account. If it no possible, so I use my credit card.
Hi
I am happy to use either whatever you require.Just love your patterns.Many thanks Karyn
Most often I use credit card.
I don’t use Paypal unless I have to. I use a credit card for online purchases.
I have not used PayPal…..so am welcome to your new way of payment. Thanks for giving us a chance to voice our opinion.
I usually pay with Visa. My card is protected by Verified by Visa.
Have you checked out Amazon’s payment venue? They have one too. I have slowed WAY down on Paypal, and frankly, for political reasons! I haven’t bought anything from you (yet) but will purchase things if I want them, NOT bound by paypal!
Well, I prefer PayPal as secure way of payments but if it depends on your patterns… I’ll gladely pay by credit card too :)
Until recently citizens of my country couldn’t have a paypal account so I learnt to live without and so far all places have accepted my credit card.
However I have paid through Paypal, using my credit card, without needing an account so as long as this option is avaialble Paypal is fine by me.
I feel safer with PayPal, and prefer to use it if it is an option. Plus I like that if i’m using PayPal I don’t have to run downstairs to get my credit card out of the wallet :)
