Good luck on getting an answers to this one. They don't want to give out who they use. I too am researching them and don't know which to get.

 

Too many hidden fees that they don't tell you about.

what type of hidden fees?

I was talking to 1st american card services trying to get their fee structure.

 

I asked for the total costs. They shot me a number of $20/month

minimum plus % rate and .25cent transaction fee.

 

Then I asked about the gateway fee. They said oh yes, that an

additonal $10/month.

 

So I then asked about a statement fee, oh yes, that's another

$9/month.

 

Oh and by the way, there's a $184 setup fee.

 

Now, understand that I only got this information after about 6 emails and specifically asking about each item.

 

If you don't specifically ask about every possible expense, they are

not going to tell you. At least that is my experience.

 

I am very nervous about choosing a provider that it would be nice if

someone would recommend one.

 

I have been talking to my local banks and they seem pretty competitive to the current online options I have seen.

Check out www.charge.com

 

I have been pleased with them, I believe they don't have any set-up fees.

 

I am not a fan of the authorize.net virtual terminal, but I don't know if there is anything better.
