another general question ! Can someone please advise some payment

Paypal is always an option (although I couldn't work out how to use it
for credit cards easily).
We ended up using Braintree ( braintreepayments.com ), and I wrote a
cartridge-braintree bridge available here:
https://github.com/molokov/cartridge_braintree
However, they are a US-based payment processor so actually getting our
Braintree account open was a big hassle. (we're a not-for-profit
incorporated association running a convention, so income and profit
model are unlike normal businesses)
I've heard good things about PIN payments ( https://pin.net.au/ ) who
are Australian based, and they do link to a django-pinpayments module
here: https://github.com/rossp/django-pinpayments
I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to use that as a basis for a
cartridge-pinpayments module, but nobody's written one yet that I can see.
Someone mentioned Stripe here the other day, also US based, but
currently having a private beta for Australia, so you could consider them.
When I was examining payment gateways, my requirements (for the
non-profit) were that the charges had to be per-transaction only,
without any ongoing monthly fee, as it's likely we'll have low but
steady income for maybe 10 months and then 2 or more years of nothing.
I also wanted to find ones that had developer-friendly Python/Django
integration, and many of them do, although I suspect you won't find many
with direct cartridge integration modules that haven't been written by
members of this community right here.
If you're setting up a site for an e-business that has a large monthly
turnover, many of the major banks and credit unions do have e-payment
APIs (some even with Python modules to make integration easier) but they
charge a monthly fee in addition to a per-transaction charge.
Doing this via your client's bank will mean the payments will reach them
more quickly.
