Ideal payment system grows in popularity

Friday 15 January 2010

Online payments totalling €45m were made using the Dutch banks' iDEAL internet cash transfer system last year, according to bank traffic company Currence.

In total, some 39% of internet payments were made using iDEAL. PayPal has just 4% of the Dutch market.

The number of iDEAL payments rose 63% last year and four out of five online shops now offer this form of payment, Currence said.

Oh, really. Have you used IDEAL? Have you sent someone money who did not deliver the goods?

Try it and then ask IDEAL for help. There is none!!

At least with paypal and visa, you can get your money back for non-performance.

IDEAL, no way!!

iDEAL is a plain bank transfer. visa and paypal charge you extra for the additional services. I pay online with iDEAL whenever possible and never had problems.

I live in the US and have used PayPal extensively since 2002. PayPal is just as bad as you make iDEAL sound. VISA is good since you can always do a chargeback. But, PayPal is horrible.
