Hi guys

I have just had a very difficult conversation with one of paypals customer services ages, who mentioned the word fraud on quite a few occations lol.

My problem is this, i was going to use paypal to take some payments via one of my sites, but when people goto pay, it gives all my name and address out to these people, I dont really want this, i want to keep these details private, this is when the paypal advisor threw in the word fraud lol ! The conversation didnt really go anywhere and she more or less said i couldnt withhold my details

I have no desire to de fraud anyone, i had a very bad experiance once where someone got my personal details and used them very badly. So you can appreciate i dont want to do this again.

So how do i ensure my privacy during these kind of payment is there a simple way around this that i just dont know about, the words merchant account were mentioned, would this be a solution ?

Or maybe a different way of payment ? 2 checkout or google checkout of which i know little about ?

Any help appreciated

The best way is to get a payment gate way... but thats only if you are accepting credit cards. You could also accept e-checks...

I have an Authorize.net payment gateway for this reason. Get a merchant account. And get a reputable one!

Gateway pricing with a merchant account is the way to go. Pricing will be minimal compared to 3rd party processors or paypal.

let us know if you need help...

Hi there

I have been looking at merchant account sites, but they speak a language i dont really understand, how in simple terms would this help me with my problem with giving out my personal details?

Btw i have been looking at 2checkout which doesnt give your personal details out.

Hmm I know how to hide your Paypal Email but anyway you will have to give another email to your customer for support... Go to paypal and upgrade your account to business account - free- than go to custom payment pages than make your own put a company logo or something and change your paypal email to another at profile...
If you couldn't message me I give more detailed steps, because I just wrote from my mind...
