Hello,

Does anybody know a payment gateway that would allow me to process credit card payments through an online store based in Thailand?
Thanks in advance!

Is your target market Thailand or International?
Is the product completely web based, examples - stock images; or products that require shipping? Wholesale or retail?
Does alibaba not have Payment systems?

I don't want solutions like PayPal, but a real merchant account like worldpay. It would be for physical products that would be shipped internationally. The company is based in Thailand. Right now the payment gateway would be used for retail only.

Thaiepay is especially good if you want to accept Thai Baht in payment. 2Checkout.com is a standard credit card payment gateway. PayPal has now become a very good credit card payment option as well as handling PayPal members and shouldn't be under-rated.

PayPal should only be used if there is no other choice. I would go with worldpay. PayPal users will drain noob sellers dry, its a scammers paradise, unless you send to a confirmed address (cc matches address) via courier with online tracking you will loose every single time some one files a dispute. If your sending items that are of low value your not going to be sending that item via courier, its to expensive. Once people get to learn your PayPal account is an easy target to file disputes with their friends, family next door neighbour and pet dog will be ordering and hitting you with unreceived item disputes left right and center. Ive been selling online for 8 years and know all the tricks that the scum bags pull.

I am in the process of updating my website to accept on line payments for condoms products which are low value items that I intended to send domestically and internationally via Thai postal service with tracking number. I did intend to use PayPal since I already have a verified merchant account and I wanted to give customers an alternative to credit card payment, 2checkout was recommended. After reading the previous post I'm having second thoughts about using PP. Wondering if using a tracking number would dissuade unreceived item dispute scammers.

I originally seached for this thread because I'm having trouble accepting Thai Baht payments on PayPal. I'm using 3 currencies, baht, dollars and euros. Just testing the checkout process and no problem with dollars or euros but when I try to pay through PayPal using baht I get this message:
"This recipient does not accept payments denominated in USD. Please contact the seller and ask him to update his payment receiving preferences to accept this currency."
I've already set my payment receiving preferences like this:
"Block payments sent to me in a currency I do not hold:
Yes
No, accept them and convert them to U.S. Dollars
Ask Me"
Even though I checked the "accept them" option I think I'm getting the "ask me" option. Ayone one else have a problem like this or a suggestion as to how to correct it to accept Thai Baht?
I will contact PP, but before I do just thought I'd ask here. Thanks.

Agree. Thaiepay is a good choice for local websites
