Hi guys! I am interested in knowing the most attractive payment options that clients are looking for at a hosting/cloud provider. Can you give me a feedback on this matter?
Thanks' in advance!

    I see these threads weekly. Customers prefer PayPal and Stripe(for credit cards).

    If you're a hosting company that I've never heard of before, it'd have to be a 3rd party gateway like Paypal, 2Checkout etc or not at all. Even larger providers, I'm wary of providing card details.

    Thumbs up for PayPal without question.

    Thumbs down for Stripe and any other cc processor - lack of control over my money.

    Because hosts are one of the most popular targets for bad guys, I try to never pay hosts with CC direct, always PayPal. No PayPal is a dealbreaker for me. SoftLayer is the only host that I don't use PayPal to pay (not because I super trust them or anything, just some unrelated reason)

    HostSlick Customers prefar PayPal/credit card (2checkout) and Bitcoin.

  • As a customer, I know it's not always the best for the host, but I prefer PayPal

    Huh? Oh yeah, I guess there is currency in there...I'm sorry, what?

    PayPal, 2CO, Stripe or BTC.

    PayPal

  • Paypal is a must. In years of on-line shopping I've never seen Stripe anywhere so I'm guessing it's only used in certain countries. From what I can tell, it's only talked about on LET.

    Cash on mail :)

  • Thanks a lot for the feedback. We are actually using Paypal and Skrill although I must say, from a provider point of view they charge a lot.

    You came back after 4 months to thank these good people? :p

  • I use Paypal for everything, I even use my Paypal Debit Card instead of my banks Debit card at ATMS because the Paypal fee is lower.

  • Paypal

    I haven't been so active lately...dealing with some other things...and I am quite new to this forum which is really helpful and proactive comparing to what I've seen on other forums

    Paypal for smaller hosting companies, using a card that provides better foreign exchange rates than Paypal. I'd use a prepaid card instead, which I may start doing to save a bit time.
