Payflow Pro worth it or no in 2010?
 

I was checking out my ebay settings and looked at where i can receive credit and debit card payments and i see payflow from paypal. Anybody who has used payflow here in 2010 and can share there experience?

Anybody???

Never heard of it, so I googled it and nothing but paypal links popped up, so it's affiliated with PP. How does it work?

All it is is a merchant account with paypal, no? You pay a fee and instead of the usual sign up page you get the direct credit card page at checkout for shopping carts. Its still paypal. And I dont think it has anything to do with eBay. And did I mention, its still paypal. So still papal troubles

Payflo is a Payment Gateway, a merchant Account for all Intents and Purposes, It gives you the ability to accept All Credit or Debit Cards,,,Payments from Buyer Checking accounts (ACH Payments) as well as Paypal it is really designed for Active Websites. It is priced Differently also you pay a Monthly Flat Fee (From $20.00-$60.00) and only .010 Per Transaction, and Nothing else. I Think (Not 100% Sure) you can only intergrate it with an Ebay Store.

but where does the money go when somebody checksout too my paypal account or straight to my bank account?

This could be VERY interesting if payments go directly to your BA. You know, like a actual merchant account is suppose to? :rolleyes: If money is still in their possession at the time of purchase. F'em.

I'm pretty sure its just a "professional" way to integrate credit card payments on your website via paypal. The money would still be the same as any other paypal account, under their control.

If you are going to setup a merchant account one outside of paypal would be smarter.
