There are services that let you accept credit cards without going through
the trouble and expense of getting a merchant account.

The one I use is called CCNow (www.ccnow.com).  Their only restriction is 
that you must be selling something physical (eg not weekly access to your 
site or downloadable software).  They take something like 8% to cover their 
costs and mail you checks for the rest.

I had a merchant account and online CC processing service before this, and 
the cost was over $250/month for all the crap.  If you're low to medium 
volume, then commission based services like CCNow (I'm sure there are many 
others) are a viable way to go.

Oh, Dear!  I didn't see the "wont" in there on the second line.  I thought you were 
asking if you have to get an account.  So, I answered affirmatively.

As other have stated, you need to get (and pay for) accounts in order to process cc's 
online (or anywhere, for that matter).

Sorry,

You have to have an account with either one.  Payflow or CyberCash is just a
card swiper on the Internet.  An acquiring bank is still needed.

Hi Guys,
Special greetings to all of you who have helped me in the past.

As some of you know i just bought a PHP book called "Php Blackbook" which i
heard is really good.
Anyway, In chapter 4 it talks about credit cardsand then CyberCash which
is owned by verisign and payflow which too is owned by verisign. The book
also gave me some url and RFCs to look up.
I dont know if its coz i'm a newbie to PHP or just dumb but I just cant
understand this...its too damn high funda for me,
I know google is my pal so I went there, read up on differient RFCs and got
even more confused!

I just want to know have any of you worked on these systems? eg CyberCash
and PayFlow?
Does this mean that if i want to start accepting credit cards on my site i
wont have to pay for a credit card merchant account?

PLEASE HELP if you know the answer or can offer any suggestions,comments
ANYTHING.

Have a great day,
-Ryan.
/*If you see me getting beated up by the cops, put down the camera and come

Um,
I think you need to read the manual,
>From the Verisign Payflow Link Technical Documentation Guide:

What is Payflow Link?
Payflow Link is a VeriSign-hosted, secure HTTP-based Internet payment
solution.
It allows you (a merchant with an Internet merchant account) to connect your
customers to VeriSignTs secure order form server and use it to automate
order
acceptance, authorization, processing, and transaction management.


You gotta have an account from what I've found,
might be different with cybercash though,
