Dear Alex,

If you dont use Paypal, that surprises me, such a wonderful way of payment.

When you use PayPal it's the person on the receiving end that gets charged the fees. It's a cost of doing business but someone's got to pay it. With any other method it's the payor that picks up the tab.
The nicest thing about using PayPal is they're the only ones that get your banking info online (unless a hacker manages to intercept the info but that seems pretty secure now).

Robin...
I use visa and there is no transaction fees..
It cost me nothing..I have a special card that has a $500.00 limit..so if it gets hacked..
And I always pay any credit card debt a soon as I am billed..100% so there is no interest..
Other than that I pay cash..
Cash by mail gets there..I have used cash by regular mail..just costs a stamp..and have never lost a cent..
So that is as cheap as it gets.
I don't recommend it for every one but it has worked for me in the past.

I vote for Paypal. Not many banks will allow Internet users (such as MLU) to accept credit card payments while Paypal covers all of the major cards. Yes, they pay a fee but this is taken from every transaction so instead of $50. they receive $47.50 - still easy for them. And cash is problematic for many of our international users. Do they try to find Cdn dollars and pay high exchange rates (there are fees involved), do they send US dollars and MLU has to get the cash converted or do they send local currency and, again, MLU has to get the money changed to Canadian - all of which requires someone to go to the bank during work hours. Paypal is all on-line and the funds are deposited to the appropriate account. I believe there is even a method of making 'donation' payments which do not incur fees.
Rather than an annual subscription I believe that you can set up Paypal for monthly, bi-monthly, etc.. payments. I would gladly pay $20/month than $200/year
