Taking credit cards and other payments online are critical to e-business success.

We use and recommend PayPal.

PayPal lets you take credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express & more) plus payments from bank accounts in CDN$, US$ and many other currencies.  They have over 50 million accounts in 45 countries.

There are no setup or monthly fees and their payment system has a FREE shopping cart.  60% of all eBay transactions are done through PayPal, leading them to drop their own system and buy PayPal in 2002 .

One of my favorite tools is the subscription tool, where people can sign up for my monthly Internet marketing mentoring and coaching packages.  We run 1,000s of dollars and many transactions through PayPal every month without any problems.

PayPal has received close to 20 awards for technical excellence from the Internet industry and the business community at large -most recently the 2003 Webby Award for Best Finance Site and the 2003 Webby People's Voice Award for Best Finance Site.
