We started an online shopping mall about two years ago offering electronics and fragrances. The key issue we had was being able to offer secure credit card processing for our customers other than going through PayPal. For those of looking to break into the online world being able to offer multiple payment choices can help immensely with your traffic and customer retention. At CardAccept.com they can provide merchant accounts to almost anyone that is starting a business online. They offer a secure shopping interface that can even incorporate a shopping cart feature to help build up your add on sales. Your customers can pay online, via the phone or even through your store via terminal. They offer a great package for businesses or individuals and the fees are very reasonable.
