EBay to Ditch PayPal for Dutch Payment Processor Adyen
Here's what puzzles me. I have looked into Stripe, and just browsed the Adyen webpage. Both of those services seem to require you to maintain your own "active" server that can run server side code.PayPal seems to be unique in being able to take payments from a passive web page, because the customer conducts their transaction at PP's website.This is why I continue to use PP for my tiny little business (without eBay). Even though I consider myself reasonably tech savvy, I don't trust myself to maintain a website that is compatible with everybody's browser, phone, etc., and that guarantees the security of their personal data. Moving to another payment processor requires a quantum leap in technology that I'd rather not keep up with. I'd rather design another gizmo.From time to time I look around for an alternative to PP, and haven't found one yet. I suspect that many small-time eBay sellers may be in the same boat.
