I have a friend who uses paymate as he refuses to deal with paypal.

Many people do not have accounts as they have been sucked in to paypal.

The service from paymate is significantly better than paymate but ebay have squeezed them out of the link to encourage increased profits from paypal.

It is no longer really viable to worry about it as the paypal propoganda is all pervading.

"australias most preferred payment method"

"as compared to INDIVIDUAL credit card brands"

Means that every other visa brand and mastercard brand is compared to the all pervasive paypal. Not if you prefer Visa or mastercard  but ANZ visa, Westpac Visa, etc etc etc.

Lies, **bleep** lies and statistics.
