That’s not so bad. Especially for something new that probably will not take
off. Hate to get tied to a large monthly bill that could totally eat the
income for the first few months.

Their cheapest package is $29/month and the rate is 2.9% plus a $.30
transaction fee. There are no other "hidden" charges or taxes like with many
other processors.

We are using Shopify with one of our companies that is 99% online. We have
done over $160,000 in a single month (avg ticket $63) and never had a single
problem. We are using their top pricing model, so the CC fee is 2.3% (including
the transaction fee). That's the lowest price I could find when I looked
before. Many other e-commerce sites quote lower rates, until you actually
factor in their "gateway" and other misc. charges.
The other advantage is you don't have to get an actual credit card merchant
account, so there are no personal guarantees or any of that with Shopify. You
simply sign-up, setup the site, and start selling. :)

They will all do what I want, but since these products may not actually
sell, I want to get the monthly expense down as low as possible.�
