How To Find A Trustworthy Online Payment System
By: Anna-Marie Stewart, Fri May 5th, 2006
Let's face it. You’re online to make money, which ultimately
means selling from your website. There are a lot of options for
accepting online payments, but how do you know which is
trustworthy and which isn't?
The first stop should be using the whois directory to see which
country they’re based in. If it says Panama, Cayman Islands or
anywhere in Africa, it’s probably not a good sign.
Network Solutions WHOIS Lookup allows WHOIS queries to find out
who owns and administers an Internet domain.

All The Whois is a directory of whois search engines, software,
lookups, and registries for different countries and domain name
companies.

Next, check that the contact information is legitimate. Use the
online phone books to see if their name is there.

If it looks like a legitimate business name then check the
states business registry to see if it’s really registered, and
to make sure that the contact details match up. If names,
contact info and addresses aren’t available, then you’ve got to
ask yourself the question “If this is a legitimate company, why
isn’t there more information available?”
