How to get a merchant account - a series of hoops
That was pretty interesting, but left me wondering, if you're selling web services, why would one get a merchant account, versus signing up with Amazon Simple Pay or Google Checkout or Paypal?  It seems like there, all you need is a bank account to dump funds into, and a little button on your site to send people to give their CC details to A/G/P.I haven't processed CCs before, but I'd love to hear people's stories about it.
