I just integrated a new payment processor and coupon system and need a few to test it (first five get in on this). PM me if you are interested (you will receive 75% off your first month of hosting). I most likely will fall asleep soon, so I will reply to those interested tomorrow. Thanks!

Which payment processor are you using now?

How much do they charge?

We were using PayPal and have just added PaySystems. Fees are steep and we are currently taking the following hit with them: $.35 and 5.5% per transaction (with a rolling reserve). Just needed another option, just in case PayPal ever failed us.

even tho people have asked for paypal payments, i don't think i'll ever use them in a web hosting environment. paypal does not ask if a customer decides to request a refund on a 'service', they just process it from what i've seen.

Haven't had to worry with PayPal yet, but I've seen some horror stories. Basically PayPal puts both you and the customer at the mercy of their discretion. They will take the host's money and may or may not refund the customer, but they will still take it.

Cool I've heard good things about Paysystems, the BIG established web hosts (http://www.httpme.com/) uses them.

If I were to offer web hosting to the general public I'd probably open an account but no need.

No complaints of them as of yet. They setup the account and approved it pretty quick after I sent in the necessary documentation. I am curious how long it takes them to deposit the money into a bank account once the funds are released.

For Aussie Bob (who lives in Australia) he receives incoming wire transfers every Friday, not sure how it works for us Americans.

We do not support ASP at the moment, but are looking into alternatives that do not hamper our server's resources. If you can point us to a acceptable solution, we will look into it and give it a try. We are still testing some solutions out, but simply can not guarantee that it will be available for you to use.

thanks for the response.

I'm currently hosted on a Win2K Advanced Server box with MS SQL2k. If I were to move I'd want something of the equivilent.
