Paypal

Do you think a site looks unprofessional if they use paypal?

 

[GordyMac]

No.. I don't find it makes a website look unprofesional.. alot of even big datacenters as well as online computer stores accept paypal.

Doesnt look unprofesional. And if it does i wouldnt care because 90% of my clients pay with Paypal.

Thanks for that, I wasnt sure. A lot of people say paypal is unprofessional and gives a "childish" look to a site

No I dont think it does at all but I do think it looks more professional if you have other options than paypal for payment, ie. through a third party merchant account or your own merchant account etc.

A lot dont want to pay via paypal even though they can use it for paypal payments also

 

[GamesCreation]

So it's best just to ahve it as an option?

Thanks for the advice

It's a good option, a merchant account looks more pro but will pass on more cost to the customer, so it's down to what you wish to target.

 

[HS Nick]

Yes, that childesh thing comes from when that is all you offer, because the kids under age that try to run companies cant get cc processors or anything.

 

[GamesCreation]

But it also stops teenagers from being able to set up and run their own business

 

[HS Nick]

Thats what i said right?

Or do you mean paypal stops them? I dont know how that is possible although you are supusto be 18 to signup for a paypal account.

 

[GamesCreation]

No, I mean it's unfair for some teenagers who have good ideas and are willing to put the work into it but cant because they cant get a merchant
