I would suggest you pay pal now a days almost all hosting companies are accepting pay pal as their payment method. And next one is CC. But in cc once you pay you can’t get your money back if you are cheated by anyone. In pay pal you can open a notice and they will ask you for details if you submit them properly and if they feel that you are really cheated by that person they will credit your amount from their account. So Pay Pal Is Best.

Second consideration is year end taxes. If you can get as many business transactions onto a credit card as possible (pay it off at the end of the month of course), and have the discipline not to mix with personal transactions, it will save you oodles and oodles of time at the end of the year whether you're filing an LLC return, Schedule C, etc.

Personally I highly recommend the AMEX OPEN card. First and foremost, they give you 5% back on gas (you have to find a station that accepts it), 5% back on wireless, 3% back at Staples and 1% back everywhere else. It does add up. An excellent example of how to save with this card was with UPS. UPS is, quite literally, invoice happy. They invoice weekly. Many years ago, I found that I would issue a check, send it out and by the next week my payment wasn't reflected on the account causing confusion. As a result, I just started paying on a monthly basis anyway, but then UPS would throw pesky little late fees on the account. Now, I gave them the OPEN card and they bill it automatically, I get 1% back and never a late fee, never any confusion because the check was still in transit.

I am in favor of echecks since my bank will protect those just a easily as it will my debit card transactions and as a guy recovering from bankruptcy I prefer to stay away from using my only credit card now because of the huge fees associated with it. As far as receiving money I am a fan of paypal since I don't have to worry about any of the billing hassles.

Loon,

You will have to offer them all if you dont want to turn away customers!

We accept all methods (CC, debit card, checks [or cheques in English], paypal, bank tranfer) and more than one method are ofthen used by the same client.

hi there,

i still prefer customers to have mo choices to pay and in this case, paypal is a good medium to settle the payment. Web Hosting such as ASPHostCentral.com - Web Hosting Specialist in ASP Web Hosting, ASP.NET2 Web Hosting, ASP.NET3.5 Hosting, DotNetNuke Hosting, MSSQL 2000 Web Hosting and MSSSQL 2005 Hosting, Sharepoint 3 Hosting and PHP Hosting has offered this payment service and it is a great, easy way to pay.

Paypal is fine too, since they also accept credit cards.
