I have seen the other article. The thing is credibility of a payment gateway is key on a business. Alertpay is good, works really similar to paypal but the fact that it is owned by an Indian in Canada makes lots of US clients shy off. I have done quite some business with Alertpay, infact, I know one of the senior accountants there personally. My advise is still 2co. David.
