But one thing that is becoming a growing problem is credit cards in a no card holder present online business. Basically you are getting screwed so many ways from bank fees, transaction fees, gateway fees, etc. And to add to this you are at the mercy of the card holder's bank.

Now I have things pretty well under control, but I'm thinking of implementing and maybe even going completely cc free. There are so many other, safer options out there now, and not all countries even use credit cards as their default money transfer option.

Has anyone done this? I have to a smaller degree and it has worked, but I've never gone full-on with it.

If you have done this, what services did you use?
