Let PayPal deal with the security, and credit card info, after all it's
what they do.
at the day job, when we switched from paypal (who we found very
undependable)
to authorize.net, we were very pleased to discover that authorize.net
would take
care of the credit card numbers for us, so we didn't have to try to
secure them beyond
the usual requirements while the numbers are in transit.
i would definitely recommend outsourcing for this if at all possible.
Paypal has a perception issue - they are perceived as being tightly
linked with eBay. That's a problem in the corporate arena. If my stock
broker were to tell me they do all their financial transactions through
Paypal, I'd probably wonder if they were a legitimate corporation.
Do any of these outsourcers indemnify corporate customers against fraud
or data loss?
