what do you all use lately for in shop creditcard processing? We've been using Square which has met our needs, but seems expensive to pay 2.75% per transaction. Also, has anyone ever had Square? if so, have they switched to something else?
I've found some systems which would cost us less annually, but the reviews have been significantly mixed. Thanks for anyone's feedback.

Colin,
Does Circlepay have desktop apps? Or just smartphone? We're trying to set up PoS and everything seems to be smartphone-only.
We want a desktop app that works with card readers and isn't a browser app. Ideally it would be open source. I know these criteria together mean probably nothing is out there - but worth checking I figure.
Thanks,

circlepay https://www.circle.com/invite/VSW0JS works very well.
If you want to try something using cryptocurrencies, then there are many other options. Coinbase, uphold, metamask (with chrome browser). Dash, Stellar https://www.stellar.org/ (maybe someday).
It's getting closer to where we won't need paypal or fiat any more but right now getting from fiat to crypto can still be a challenge. I like ether the best and used to use circlepay to buy bitcoin to get ether. Now I use gemini or coinbase, but getting signed up with various exchanges can be a real hassle and slow process. https://shapeshift.io/#/coins can also be a way to exchange digital assets.
Bitcoin is not environmentally friendly. Neither is ether at the moment, but at least it has a transition plan. Many wonder whether it will successfuly transition.
Here's one way circle manages some of the reporting issues fiat gateways face (with limits):

Circle was very fast when I used it. With coinbase bank transfers pretty much always take the full five business days.
Good luck!

Patreon is for recurring payments, so if you think you have people willing
to do that then definitely go for that.
Stripe and Square are probably the two largest Paypal alternatives.

Patreon? I've not used it, but I hear it referred to quite often.

Hi all,
Has anyone used an alternative to Paypal that lets you accept donations through your website and send money?
Thanks!
