Free online store software?
I am in search of a free online store/check out program to help sell some products on my site. Do free ones even exist? Because currently I do not have 5-1000 dollars to spend on one...
Thanks, |

A lot of people use PayPal. I don't know if they're free or not, though. Might be worth checking out. (No pun intended
)

With Paypal,
it is free, but depending on the account that you get, you need to pay a fee whenever you send/receive money( I think). |

Paypal is not an online store. It is mainly just a way of paying for something that you bought.
Probably the most popular for people with little programming experience is Miva Merchant . If you have some programming experience, some good ones are PhpShop and osCommerce. All are free. I personally like PHPShop but you would have to have some know how to get it to work for you. |

Miva Merchant looks very appealing an easy to use but I could not find the free version of it. Could you be kind enough to point it out? Thanks, |

i think paypal charges you a standard fee per transaction no matter what the price is, in the UK its 5p i think.
you could always get them to pay by cheque, or phone the card details in

You will need both a shopping cart and a credit card processor if you want to take credit cards online. Keep in mind that there are transaction fees of 3-5% per item.Paypal is one and Cybercash is another. |
