Payment Service Providers for Ezines

The company concerned 1. supplies a link to their payment gateway, 2. handles customer support and 3. usually provides merchant/webmaster with online facilities to manage all aspects of accounts. Subscriptions can be usually taken by check, credit card and/or telephone billing. Don't forget to the hosting platform required: many services are still Unix only.

Major changes since our last update are:

1 the imposition of extra fees for US digital products by Visa ($750 initial plus $375/year: increases also threatened by Mastercard), which payment service providers have interpreted/passed on in various ways.

2. a more cautious/selective attitude by the payment service providers towards their clients.

As a consequence, you will sometimes need to supply your specific requirements to the payment service providers to obtain a proper quote. Where the fee structure has been removed from the site we have added * and retained the old figures in the hope they will provide a rough guide to the new fees.
