Merchant Account Services

W3 HOSTING offers a menu of merchant account systems to deliver the features that best suit your commercial needs. Some are simple to use and ideal for smaller sites. Some enable you to manage orders through multiple-sites from order placement to fulfillment.

Your ability to accept payments from as many gateways as possible has a direct impact on your site's bottom line. The more payment options, the more sales.

When using the open source software (OSS) and services recommended by W3 HOSTING, you can be certain that these applications will click into place seamlessly with any W3 HOSTING account.

Each of these has its own unique features and functions to simplify the process of receiving, processing and fulfilling orders and, of course, receiving payment.

Our recommendations in the area of merchant account services are:

  • PayPal — the best known, most trusted name in on-line money exchanges
  • Authorize.net — a complete merchant account with lots of features
  • Google Checkout — a simple, well-designed CO that syncs with Adwords
  • WorldPay — a complete e-money management system; ideal for start-ups
  • 2checkout — on-line distribution of any product or service; a real time saver

Each tool has been tested by W3 HOSTING and found to deliver improved productivity in the management of merchant services.
