[e-gold-list] Paypal vs e-gold: Similar services?
Hallo I'm in the process of setting up my (first) online business website following steps from videos I bought. The only problem is that these videos show me how to set up the Paypal service, and my country is not (yet) listed in the International Paypal setup. In an e-mail Paypal confirmed that I cannot use their services to receive payments from customers since Paypal is not available in South Africa. I'm new to the whole concept of e-businesses, and I'm not sure if it such a good idea to use e-gold in the place of Paypal. Is doing business online more difficult with e-gold than Paypal? Are there reliable, similar international services such as Paypal and e-gold? Can anyone perhaps advise me on what to do? Thanks.

Is doing business online more difficult with e-gold than Paypal? I think you'll be happy using e-gold, and it won't be any more difficult than setting up Paypal. Here's a starting point: http://e-gold.com/unsecure/sci_home.html If you go there and click the Shopping Cart Interface link you'll see some useful information. On the left side they actually have a working Click to Spend Now button to demonstrate how it's done. Right below that, they show you the html code you need to put on your web page. You can just copy and paste that right in and just change the stuff that's shown in red: - your account number - your company name - your email address - what web page to show when a payment is successful - what web page to show when a payment is not successful - what to put in the memo field on the payment screen (you can put an order number, a thank you, or whatever) That's it really. Oh sure, you can get really fancy and do the fully automatic stuff shown on the right, but you probably don't need to. Let us know if you have any questions. I'm sure a lot of us will be happy to chime in with any answers you need. -- Patrick http://fexl.com --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.
[e-gold-list] DGC ATM Terminals
Dear List, Can anyone here recommend to us some suppliers of touch screen computer terminals that can be used on the counters of walk-in/retail businesses with internet connection capability. We need a solution that would allow us to install our own software. Thanks.

[e-gold-list] RE: [dgc.chat] Loyal Bank
FIDEX: The St Vincent government actually use Loyal as an example to their other banks as the way to ensure sound management and due diligence policies. RE: May I ask how you came up with this statement? FIDEX: But I think Loyal Bank has the opposite concern, that Hungarian regulators and the advent of EU membership might make it difficult to operate from there in the future. So I know they are slowly but surely moving more and more of their operations physically to St Vincent. RE: Currently, the government here is restructuring the offshore sector and in so doing no new entities are allowed. I don't know how adversely this action will affect Loyal Bank, but what I do know is that a lot of Banking Licenses have been revoked. To move a bit off topic I would like to encourage foreign businesses to come to St Vincent. There are many benefits to be derived from setting up here.

Hello there, In my experience e-gold is rather reliable. However, you'd be limiting your market potential if you 'only' accept payments in that way. By the same token, have a look at www.paypalwarning.com; I tend to believe everything you'll read there, because it happened to us as well. Of course, there are also several other ways to sell your goods. Ebay comes to mind. And there are several other e-currency providers, albeit we have only ever dealt with e-gold and hence I can't recommend any of the others specifically. Further [*sales plug warning*], you might want to have a look at www.cyfrocash.com We can help you to actually accept payments from the US, Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia in a variety of ways, ranging from personla cheques to bank deposits and money orders as well as, in some cases, credit cards [tangible goods and established customers, only]. [*end sales plug*] Oh, and you might want to have a look at www.2checkout.com for accepting credit cards through them. I'm not sure if they accept clients from South Africa, though. Of course, if your budget permits it, you could incorporate a company in the US and get a bank account for that company and customers could then pay to that account. Doesn't cost the world and adds a 'trust the locals' factor if you expect that the US will be a large market for your products. That's all I can think of right now. Good Luck, Robert. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.
