Electronic Payment Methods

Mail order

Mail order payments involve more risks for banks and financial institutions, so acquiring banks usually ask for more commission per transaction (perhaps 3.1% instead of 2.79%) and a more detailed agreement on the fraud checks you use. If you already have an offline service it's best to negotiate with your bank to avoid paying another set-up charge.
