Shopping.com New Credit Card Processor - ACTION NEEDED

Dear Merchant,

We are enhancing your payment flexibility, reliability and security by transitioning to a new payment processor. All credit card payments will be processed by PayPal effective September 10, 2009. This change will not result in any additional cost to you and will offer additional payment options that we currently do not support such as direct debit.

Linking Your Account

The only action you need to take is to link your Shopping.com account to a PayPal account by:

  1. Logging in to your Merchant Account Center
  2. Clicking on "Act Now" in the popup dialog box upon login
  3. Entering your PayPal account details or registering for a new PayPal account
  4. Accepting the PayPal Terms and Conditions

What's Next

Once you have linked to a PayPal account there is no other action you need to take. On September 10, 2009, your billing charges will automatically be processed by PayPal.

Questions? Refer to our Frequently Asked Questions documentation.

Your collaboration in this transition is greatly appreciated!
