I'm looking for options beyond our present PayPal situation, for booking on our website. But also taking rentals from booking.com

However, I'm looking at stripe and it has me completely bamboozled. I saw helium, and that looked like an easier implementation of stripe, but to be honest, I'm wanting something to take credit card payments, with the ease of integration that we got with PayPal.
Tried worldpay, but for little us, it's too expensive. Monthly fees, plus a percentage......

Any help from the collective is appreciated.

Thanks.

Kevin.

Stripe is great, unless you're trying to do a proper billing cycle at the same time as a free trial.

Really easy to set up.

Our only complaint has that for the customer it can be a bit weird since there's very little UI.

Sagepay should do the trick.

It really must be me, as although I understand aspects of it, tokens and handling etc. When it comes down to the integration and checkout function, the compiler has me bamboozled...totally....

well.


Thanks for the input folks, I think i'm on the right track, but as far as the integration goes...I'm really really struggling, its code written by and for coding types. A typical tech manual.

SO, if anyone knows a reasonable person, who can assist, and maybe integrate on my website, please let me know, I would be asking for personal recommendation, not just seen on a website and looked good though.


Thanks.

They have loads of code examples on their site, just grab one of those and tailor it to your needs if you are struggling.
