Default What service to use to accept credit cards?

Just curious who is using what to allow clients to pay you with the credit card. I don't have a studio and do my photo shoots on location, but I want to offer more products to my clients, but not everyone have enough cash to pay for everything at once

Thanks,
Katya

You might want to check out Square. It's a credit card processing app for mobile phones. It has lower fees than some services and has gotten good reviews.

I'd recommend waiting a bit on Square. I've signed up, but won't use them until they get the kinks worked out. A bit of google work turns up a lot of problems.


Paypal, as much as I hate them, works.

I use Propay for on-site swiping, though I'm soon switching over to Payjunction.

I'm using Square on my android phone. The fees are very reasonable.
