    Which is the best payment option E-gold or Stormpay?

    For me E-gold is best payment processors for those who have no paypal service. E-gold has lowest fees among all payment processors. Its very popular than Stormpay. Stormpay have high fees and only few sites allowed them.

    Yes you're right, Stormpay has high fees but the problem with e-gold is it's so difficault to find a gateway to fund an e-gold account !
    For example It's been a while that I want to pay someone using e-gold but I can not fund my e-gold account since goldex stopped accepting credit cards.

    On the site of e-gold you also have a section where you can find the companies you are looking for.

    You pay with Paypal and they transfer the funds converted to gold (egold) into your e-gold account.

    Scroll downwards and you will see exchange services that can help you.

    Take your money to Bank Of America and put it in Uniclear's account. From there you can buy and sell egold. Uniclear also do a cheap debit card which lets you access your egold as cash. Just sell some egold on the Uniclear site and charge up the card with it and you're set.
    Less chance of being scammed if you do it yourself!

    EGold is of course the best and I think egold is the system which is lot better than paypal. Paypal needed to be verified but egold dont.

    Hi Najm,
    Just wanted to let you know that it's against paypal's terms of service ! and never accept to do so because if paypal finds out, they will immediately terminate your account.

    Yes e-gold is easy to use but it's the most unsecure kind of money on the web !
    I will give you some examples:

    1- Someone finds your password or hacks to your e-gold account, you can't do anything and it's not even trackable, where your money is! It's like loosing CASH.

    2- You pay someone for a good or service but you don't get what you should ! There is NO WAY to issue a roll back.

    3- As e-gold account holders are completely anonymous without any verification, it can be used for illegal purposes. that's why recently you can't use your credit card to fund your e-gold account in most of exchanging companies. Some of them require the credit card copy with a copy of ID card to be faxed to them.


    These are some of the reasons to prove that easiest way is not always the best way and yes it depends on situation.
    For GPT websites with small amounts of cash, it's a good idea 'cause it has a very small fee but for greater amounts, its security is not enough.

    Cheers
