Has anyone suggested www.wepay.com as a new payment service? If not, I'd like
to throw it out there as a Paypal replacement. They charge 3.5%, minimum of $0.50,
so the sweet spot falls between $6 and $50 to beat Paypal on price. Up to $100
will run about $0.30 more than Paypal's 2.9% and $0.30 fees. From what I've read,
very similar to Paypal, except they will process Buyer payments direct from bank
accounts (ACH), still just $0.50. Check it out and let me know if you spot anything
outside normal or may be a problem.

For that style of ACH bank account transaction, Dwolla.com is a whole lot cheaper
(free under $10, $.25 total over $10) *Not that WePay it isn't a valid service,
just not very optimally priced.
