Split payments (commission) payment-processor?

Hi,
I'm looking for a non-merchant account payment processor that allows me to split payments (i.e. send payment to two or more recipients).
So far, I believe Paypal might be able to do the job, but are there any alternatives?
Thanks

I bet there are a lot, but would you trust them?

Yeah, I hate reading Terms & Conditions - alas. So, no, of course I don't trust them. I thought that's the nature of all business

If you don't trust anyone, your only option is to personally deliver gold ingots to those you want to pay to.

Ah. Gold. Now you see, I'm looking for a way to send it online and split it into two without having to carry anything. Technology exists to enable, not disable.
So if anyone knows of a good non-merchant account payment gateway that offers said "split"- or "mass-payment" options, please let me know.

Sorry I have no good advice to offer you Patrik, although if you are dealing with larger sums of money please do not use paypal. I'm not trying to bash paypal, but far too often I've seen money simply
disapear, if you know what I mean.

Yes, I've heard of that, but never seen it happen. Hence my hesitation in pursuing alternaties to Paypal (and their customer service).

I don't know specifically if they can do it or not, but I've used SaberCharge before. They were quite accomidating when I was going through the implementation stages.
