~3%, dirt cheap?!

Why are so many of you so happy to throw so much cash away to process money? I know Stripe is lovely to integrate but as a business you have to shop around.

In the UK (and EU) card processing is much cheaper. Stripe is closer to 2% but if you shop around, you'll find somebody who'll offer you 0.8-0.9%, give you free terminals and no monthly contract fees.

Edit for those asking: Worldpay and Handepay are the best rates I've seen recently. Both for online and off. But again, don't just cluster around one company, harass a few yourself. They're willing to compete.
