Here is the deal. paypol is old and with old customs. Hackers already know their way into its system so I think it's safer to choose other payment service. There are more than 100 payment service (I think ), but everyone knows the top 5 so ... choose one of those 5 according to your needs. Good luck.

On a rather different note. I've heard some rumors saying that ikobo has resolved their MasterCard problems and are now able to process them for merchant accounts as well. I was wondering if anyone could confirm this?

Well, apparently now they're having some more problems with MasterCard. I guess they're experiencing some sort of "growing pains". I just hope they'll grow up real fast and all of this issues will become a thing of the past. I'm sticking with them to see that become a reality!

paypal is decent but good luck getting your money back if you get ripped off from someone who you pay via paypal
2-3% is not bad at all this is right in line with what you would expect to pay if you got a merchant account and accepted visa/mastercards directly (aka there discount fee)

To be on the safe side, I will choose a safe payment provider. Do you guys know the IP management service of Ikobo. You can offer several Ip addresses which you offen used to access your Ikobo account. Then any requests of accessing your Ikobo acount through other Ip addresses will be denied. This feature can make your ikobo account more secure.

Great. I have enabled the Ip management service of my account. I think my account will be more secure now.
