Payment method 1 (Paypal)

You can pay for items you buy on eBay as well as on hundreds of other leading retail websites, or you can use PayPal to send money quickly and safely to anyone with an email address. 
  
You can pay with money held in your PayPal account balance or use another payment method such as a credit card, debit card or your bank account. 
  
Once you sign up for a PayPal account, you just need to select PayPal as your payment method when you shop online. Websites that accept PayPal will show the PayPal logo in their checkout. You will be asked to log in to your account with your email address and password to confirm the payment. PayPal never shares your financial information with sellers or retailers. 
  
If you receive a payment through PayPal, you will receive an email notification and the money will be credited to your PayPal account. You can then use your PayPal balance to make payments, or you can withdraw the funds to your bank account. 
  
It’s free to sign up for a PayPal account. Fees charged are based on who you are sending funds to: 
  
Personal payments: Payments to friends or family are free when funded by bank account or PayPal balance. If the payment is funded by credit or debit card then fee is charged to the recipient, however the sender can choose to pay this instead. Please note you must select the ‘Personal’ payment tab within the ‘Send Money’ payment flow to qualify for this rate. 
  
Purchase payments: For payments made as a purchase of goods or services, the recipient (seller) will be charged a fee. For more information visit www.paypal.co.uk and click on the ‘Fees’ link at the bottom of any page. 
  
PayPal is available worldwide and in all major currencies.


To start selling you should verify your account.

How do I verify my PayPal account?


To verify your PayPal account, follow these steps:
  1. Log in to your PayPal account at www.paypal.co.uk
  2. Click the 'Unverified’ link on the Account Overview page
  3. The steps required to verify your account will appear in the table
Depending on your account type, the steps to get ‘Verified’ will be as follows:

Payment method (List of payment)

Here I provide you a list of Payment service for selling business that you need to know.
Of course, you don't need all of them just choose one or 2 because they contain all the payment method for your customers. For example Paypal if you choose the Paypal payment express, your customer can pay by any type of card (Visa, American express...). If you want to know more about Paypal you could purchase these books as I highly recommended.

Google Checkout is free but I find it hard to use for beginner because of its function. You could try and see at google checkout official blog.

For Sagepay, you need to have a bank account which can receive money online (Internet Merchant Account). The function is similar to Paypal.

If you are a business, you should choose HSBC or RBS worldpay because you can transfer money quickly and easily.
