How's visa checkout? War under the impression that it was a direct PayPal competitor.

I can't speak for how it is now. However: the implementation for developers was so bad that they offered my company $200k to integrate it into our site and we STILL lost money on the deal.

No, Visa Checkout is a confusingly named product that only serves to send credit card data to a merchant’s servers. The card data isn’t even kept safe by a intermediate token; the merchant has to run a PCI compliant solution.

That’s very different from PayPal’s offering.

I'll take a look. Thanks. If nothing else, offering two payment options would be good for the very small fraction of customers who have had a bad experience with PP for whatever reason.
