Online Payment Options & Comparisons

What payment options can you choose from, if you want to do an online business?

I presently accept the following payment options online:-

1. For payments within Malaysia - bank transfers through CIMB Clicks, Maybank2U and PBBe

2. For payments within Brunei - bank transfer through Maybank2U

3. For payments within Singapore - bank trasfers through DBS/POSB

4. For international payments - through Paypal using Visa/Master

For payments within Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei using bank transfers, there are no trasaction fees and your only cost is the yearly RM8 bank fee.

For payment comparisons, here is a quick summary for you.
