    PayPal or Worldpay

    I'd tend to disagree that Paypal will win out! Be more acceptable, most definitely, take over from the big credit card processors, not on your nelly. Risky businesses and new start-ups will always be given less favourable terms than big business when getting a merchant account, but after a...

    PayPal or Worldpay

    Offer both Worldpay and Paypal if you can. It quite funny but if you use http://www.web-merchant.co.uk as your Merchant Bureau they offer Worldpay payment gateway cheaper than Worldpay do themselves and the terms are slightly better. Don't over estimate your likely turnover via Credit Card...

    How do you handle charity support requests?

    Quickbooks 2003 Pro or Sage Line 50 v9 Financial Controller?

    Well if you intend to grow quite dramatically it might be worth going with Sage as they have scaleable products that will grow with you, it is harder to use but it is generally seen as a more robust product. If it is only going to be you doing the inputting Quickbooks is probably the way to...

    Market Research Questionnaire Opinions Please!

    Yep 25 is very unlikely to be statistically significant unless it is trully random and remember your survey is already compromised by self selection via the method you have selected (SAE), what if they don't send the survey back. Get your numbers a good bit higher (100+) and you will have a...
