PP Alternatives - CCNow/Propay/MoneyBookers/Paymate & Sharing Info with eBay/Paypal
 

I just had a question about the various other approved eBay payment methods like ProPay, Moneybookers, and Paymate, as well as the only Paypal accepting, non-PP merchant account, CCNow.

Do any of these services share information (SSN, IP, personal info) with eBay, Paypal and/or the customer?

I am in the process of getting/setting up a merchant account, but I am also considering signing up for CCNow for the brainwashed Gaypal'ers, as well as ProPay/MoneyBookers/Paymate for the international buyers unwilling/unable to use the merchant account or CCNow.

However my concern is that since all these services require you to give certain personal info (address, phone, etc.) and both ProPay, and Paymate require you to give even more confidential info (SSN, business info, etc.) do they give/share any of this information with eBay, Paypal, and/or your customers?

If so should you use ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info - at least on CCNow, and MoneyBookers? What about ProPay and Paymate?

If I give my genuine personal and business information to ProPay and Paymate, will they give that to eBay and Paypal, causing me to be linked with previous suspended accounts and suspended again??

I really need to find this out before I open this can of worms, and possibly destroy even one of my Pre-11/07 accounts!

ccnow shares nothing! it is impossible to link ;)

What about ProPay, MoneyBookers, or Paymate??

i don't know...i never used those

ProPay, MoneyBookers, and Paymate are a waste of time... trust me.

There's a reason why they're approved by eBay, they're crap!

why u said like that?

I have to agree that there is a reason these are approved by Ebay. I think they do share information and that is why Ebay accepts them as payment. I don't believe Ebay should have any say in what a seller accepts or doesn't.

ebaykilla,
that's the thing. ccnow is the best but linking ccnow with ebay is the hard part...
what is the best deal ?

best thing to me is cartmanager with an attached paypal and/or google account. that buffers your paypal from ebay. all of the transactions are simply marked "goods" and no 21 day hold or other bs paypal likes to impose.

I use CCNow but the problem is that we cannot use their paypal account in our listings.

how about cartmanager? do we use their paypal account to put in our listings?

do you think that in the near future we would not be allowed to use ccnow in our listings?
