Re: Accepting International Credit Cards?

Same  here. I service many clients that are now needing to ship and accept payments from International banks/customers.  Most US based payment gateway services use VISA's AVS system for address verification. This does not handle cards from International banks well at all. Only the US and Canada.  While most US/Canada based banks will return address info so that it can be matched with what was provided by the customer at payment time (via AVS standards), International banks do not provide this info in the same format if they provide anything at all. How does Paypal (and, in particular, the PayFlow gateway) handle International cards/banks?    What has been the experience of the group here in re: handling International customer? Any "best practices" would be greatly appreciated.         ... View more

Hello. I am servicing a new client of mine (a non profit organization). Previously, a fomer president of the organization set up a Paypal account for the organization, assumidly under his name, and there is a nominal amount remaining in the account. The member has since left the organization, and taken the Paypal login information with him. He refuses to relinquish it, or the remaining balance.   Does Paypal have any procedure for the surviving members of the organization to reclaim the account and that balance that remains in it? If not, then is there a procedure for multiple signatories to an account for a non-profit org. so that more than one person has control of the account? It would help if there were policies and procedures in place to facilitate those changes. It would truly be of help if Paypal would allow the use of "corporate entities" (e.g. "president@non-profit.org" or "treasurer@non-profit.org" to create the account without regard to an individual person.. But I guess you need to have the account tied to an individual, right? The very nature of some of these organizations is that people come and go quickly, and financial signatories change quickly. And in our case, if someone leaves and doesn't relinquish the account or funds, the org is out of luck.   I'm sure this isn't the only case of this happening.  How does the Paypal community in general handle situations like this?   All thoughts appreciated.   Regards, Clear Viz Computer     ...
