What do you suggest for my choice of a good payment processor? It's got to cover many countries, so not paypal :). It would be nice if their fees weren't too high also. What do you think? Is there such a service?
I use ikobo. It has very nice p2p fees (4%) and the speed of money transfer is less than 12 seconds. They cover 170 countries. You can do a search on google or you can directly go at www.ikobo.com . If you need more information just ask. It's free. :D

Do you want to use it as a payment processor or as a p2p money transfer service?

ikobo has three years (or 4 , I am not sure :) ) and is mostly known for it's capabilities of transferring money from emigrants to their families at home. I thought you all should know that.

That long, huh? I only thought it was something like an year or two max. Been using it for quite a while myself and it felt like I was among the ones that were using ikobo the most... guess I was wrong. :p
Yeah, that long ... They recently removed the merchant facility and returned to what (IMHO) made them number one in this industry: cheap and fast money transfer facility.

I'd hate it too. From what I've seen on other forums, it seems they are going to continue to offer just person2person money transfer services. The truth is that many immigrants use their service to send money to their families in a reasonable timeframe. It would be sad to leave those people without any other option. (I am talking about E Europe ... to be more accurate).
