The short answer to your question is that PayPal is a peer to peer payment gateway - both the buyer and seller must have PayPal accounts. If your potential customers do not have a PayPal account they will be required to open one.

Thanks for the comprehensive reply, but whoah! Slow down there, tiger! Where you getting that from? We've accepted card transactions from non-Paypal accounts - in fact, it says here:

* Fast. There’s no lengthy approval process and no shopping cart needed. Start accepting payments today.
* Easy. Customers shop on your website and pay you on PayPal. They don’t even need a PayPal account.

Kelvyn,

Sorry - your right! That is a recent change at PayPal and may make them a more attractive proposition. It may take a while to overcome their current peer to peer image 'though.

Anyway - thanks for putting me right on that - every day is a school day!

I'm not saying one is better than the other. What I am saying is that it is horses for courses. It is for each Merchant to do his own research and make his own decision. The website I mentioned above is a great place to start researching.

Regards,

Alan
