Hi guys, you are my last hope in gaining some help with my dilema.

I am a British glamour model (swimwear, bikini, lingerie etc). I have a website and have had to class it as adult as I have a paid subscription members area for the more revealing pics, ie nothing more than page three type stuff. On my website I have a public store, on this store I sell all the costumes, outfits and shoes I have worn in many of my photoshoots and videos etc. BUT as my site has had to be classed as adult, I cant take the risk on standard payment processors like paypal, and google check out etc. So my dilema is to find a good rate payment processor that will allow me to sell items on a "so called" adult site. But I obviously need to set up an account under a business name so fans can't possibly get my real name and home address as this would be very dangerous.

Now the situation then gets more complicated, a lot of my fans like to send me gifts, and sometimes they are cash gifts, oh yes! this is anohter part of my business. So I need a way for people to send me cash payments without them 1) having to sign up for accounts to be able to send me money, and 2) so I can embed a payment button on my wesbite. so once again it needs to be a processor that will allow this on a so called adult site.

I have contacted so many payment processors and they either wont provide for adult sites, or if they do its only for tangiable items, but I want to accept the gift payments too and the majority dont. This is proving such a headache.

Can anyone help me on this?

Oh I have, and have been for the last two weeks.

The either will provide a service, but will not accept donations, or they will sell adult good but not on an adult site.

recommend any that will provide all?

CCBill will provide payment for serivces and subscriptions ie memberships and webcam shows, but not for tangiable goods. Plus the maximum transaction amount with ccbill is $100 and I get offered £250 in gift donations sometimes, honestly, so this is important I get this sorted asap lol.

why not have a website for your products etc...

then have a personal website for your page 3 style photos and donations, but call it service...

Then you can use either ccbill or another payment service for adult toys.
