[MLB-WIRELESS] Payments? Try B-Pay.

[Andy Freeman]

I have had auctions paid for with B-Pay, so that would make me a
merchant and I've not seen a fee yet.

Not quite sure what the incentive is for the banks to push b-pay?!?!?

The excess transaction charge is the only charge I have seen but it is a
whole lot better than a percentage charge on PayPal or PayMate and
depending on your bank would only range from free to 50c.

I agree B-Pay would be one of the best option, but don't know if you can
use B-pay over the counter at the bank. I have been using B-Pay to pay
all my bills (that can be paid by B-Pay) online for nearly 2 years now
and never had any issue. I haven't had any fee charge to me for using
B-Pay but then again the bank do charge a fee for any transections on my
account. 

Does anyone know if the merchant get charge for using B-Pay ??



Cheers
Rob
