Has anyone had any experiences with this, receiving credit and debit card payments through a website?

Bill, Paypal isn't 100% in Colombia. If you go to their website, its not listed yet. I emailed them last year on why not, the Email they sent me was due to internet security(lack of).

Bill, was it a Colombia or US card? What I am looking for is an online credit card processor, like one of those merchant services offered for websites in the US, but that lets me process credit card debit cars in pesos in Colombia.

I have a credit card issued in Colombia (HSBC) that I had verified for a PayPal purchase from e-Bay in the US. It worked fine to pay there. Then I had some problems with another transactiom I needed money to go from the US to Colombia and it worked fine through PayPal. The amount was only about $100 USD, but it did work.
