I'm starting a small ecommerce website. How can I start receiving online payments via credit card? I'm starting with a tight budget, for the moment I'm looking for a non-expensive option.

For a start you can try paypal or 2Checkout.

However, If your volume is considerable, a merchant account would be a better option.

Paypal might be good option for you but their transaction charges are too high, If you have an operational company in UK, chronopay can offer you a 3rd party solution as well as your own merchant account, you can also get a virtual terminal at no extra costs. With their 3rd party solution there are no monthly fees and no set up fees.

The payment is only one element in the total transaction process, this is most important that the processor should truely gear of e-commerce financial transactions flow in highly secured, stable and reliable environment.
