‘Real money’ payment systems

by credit card via PayPal (no PayPal account required)

PayPal
PayPal is the largest and most trusted payment service provider for internet payments with over 400 million
satisfied users and is available in more than 100 countries . You must create a PayPal account and require a
credit card which is charged for all payments made with PayPal. The credit card information is stored on the
PayPal server and has to be entered only once. From then on you can make payments with PayPal simply by
using your e-mail address (as used for your PayPal account), and your PayPal password. You receive an e-mail
confirmation of all your PayPal payments. On the surface it looks like you pay by e-mail, under the surface
PayPal works like any other payment processor used for credit cards.
Recurring payments are only used for subscriptions. You set the recurring period and the next payment will
automatically be made when the payment date is due. If you want to end your recurring payment you must
change this in your PayPal account, VRI cannot do this for you.
PayPal payments are subject to international buyer protection rules to prevent fraud and abuse of the system,
just as regular credit card payments.
Credit card via PayPal
Each credit card payment requires a so called ‘payment service provider’ to process the transaction. You can
make payments with your credit card using PayPal as the payment processor. This payment system can be
used for initial payments, not for recurring payments.
