Taking Credit Cards

I currently use paypal but have not been able to use the portion of their company that allows credit cards. There is some issue between them and the shopping cart company I use.
My webdesigner suggested I try www.2checkout.com</A> but they have issues with lingerie and because that is what I sell they charge 2.5% per sale more then if I wasn`t and they want 6% set aside in reserves.
So what I am looking for is a company that handles the credit card sales and has a good reputation.
Any suggestions?

What is their rate for online purchases
Do they offer you a virtual terminal so you can take orders over the telephone?
Do they provide you with a Credit Card Machine?
Does your current web site support the payment gateway.
Once you know have established these 4 things, then you can start shopping for an online Credit Card Processing Solution. If you wish, I can set you up with Linkpoint at no cost to you. Some Company`s charge you for set up. I can waive that fee for you and you can be up and running in no time. The way a credit card processing company works is they have two types of businesses. They have Qualifying merchants and a Non-Qualifying Merchants. If you are a sole proprietor and work out of your home, you are non-qualifying and your rate can start at 2.3% and if you are a qualifying business you have sales, and have a storefront, you can get it as low as 1.63 or less. And you have the ability to take payments over the phone, fax, E-commerce, and Terminal. This would be a great advantage to you if your sales have been ramping up. Forget about Paypal, and all these other companys. I am a Linkpoint User and I am happy with their services. I have been for the past two years.

I heard that Google has a merchant account cart. You might want to research it. Google doesn`t integrate at all with Yahoo! store.
Hope this helps
