There are many, many businesses that offer to receive payments online. Merchant services are provided by most banks but independent companies specialise in online transactions.

Choosing who you will use to provide merchant services is usually based on costs and what is likely to be more cost-effective for your business. This is generally dictated by the number of transactions you will likely have.

You will want to bare these things in mind, as there are various fee options involved that can help you work out the best options for you:

  • Set-up fee
  • Monthly fee
  • Per transaction fee
