Ned somehting like download.com

Post by alex.barylski »

So I've decided that setting up an eCommerce site is going to cost too much money with potential of not making any money...

So I wonder if there is some payment gateway or some site which I can use to allow people globally to purchase my software...

Paypal I've considered, but I would like to ffer immediate download without working with any IPN...

I've considered that many people probably frown on being redirected to a foriegn site, especially when sending CC details, but I think it's best for now...to test the waters then if I get some positive feedback/response I will then consider setting up a merchant account, etc...

So I ask...

If you understand what I am asking :oops:

Is there any service like that?? Preferably based in USA/Canada...

Cheers :)

Other services are eCommerce sites like CubeCart, ZenCart, and OSCommerce (I use cubecart at my online store, http://www.onlinetechstore.com). With modifications you can make them look like download.com.

They offer many payment gateways and downloadable plugins for instant download. Check those out too, they are all free.
