eCommerce website allows you to make sales online and accept the payments. The eCommerce solution can vary from a simple PayPal button on your website to a sophisticated, database driven solution with thousands of items, a sophisticated shopping cart, merchant account and a complex front-end system to interr
By far the simplest, the cheapest and the most hassle-free option is the PAYPAL option. The other route is to sign up with one of the merchant accounts
With this option you add an embedded form with details of your customers’ purchases to your page. The values in this form are hidden fields that can be added dynamically by your e-commerce solution or manually on each product page of your shop. All the customer will see is a button that will direct them to your outsourced solution with details of their purchases. Here the customer logs into their account with the sourced company and pays for the goods. They are then directed back to a thank you page on your site with a code to let you know payment has been made.
Setting up this style of payment can be quick and painless and is often the easiest option for sites with a low volume of sales. To get set-up, you simply register an account with your provider of choice, fill out your details and they will give you a piece of code that you add to your pages to display the “Pay with … ” buttons.
The main advantages to this option are that it is quick to set up and you can access your money quickly. With PayPal you can spend your money immediately on sites that accept PayPal and with both PayPal and Google Checkout, you can have it transferred to your own bank account the next business day. The disadvantages are that your customers may not have an account with your provider and there can be higher transaction fees. PayPal is 3.4% + €0.35 per transaction, while Google Checkout offers free processing for 10 times your Adwords spend (i.e. if you spend €1,000 on Adwords you can process €10,000 free) or 1.5% + £0.15 per transaction ( )
Google Checkout is currently only available to the sellers based in the USA or the UK, but it is available to buyers in all countries and it is coming to Ireland soon. eCommerce site is what you require, if you intend to sell more than one or two products online. We can offer you a fully search engine optimized online shop for as little as €995 plus VAT. Contact us for more information.
