Activemerchant UK payments

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a payment processor in the UK that works without a merchant account (i.e. like Paypal) but NOT Paypal ?

I have been grappling with Paypal for a month on and off and have decided their support is crap and therefore would like to find an alternative.

It's for a small new business which is why having an internet merchant account is not the preference at the moment. We don't expect to receive many payments to start off with.

I have already integrated ActiveMerchant into the application and it works with the Bogus Gateway. I am also able to transact with Paypal Website Payments Pro UK but their side is messed up and I can't get them to fix it. Hence the search for an alternative...

Many thanks, John

That one seems like the payor needs an account with them.

I really would like something where - it integrates with my site (i.e no redirecting to other web site) - payer only needs to have a credit card (i.e. no signup/account with processor requiired) - it is supported by ActiveMerchant

It does seem to me that Paypal Website Payments Pro UK is the only real option. Hopefully I am wrong... ?
