Problems with Protx website

[meden]

Hi folks
I just wondered if anyone knows of any issues with the Protx website? all the Google links lead to 404 errors... it's been like this for several weeks that I know of. Also can somebody advise me of the pros and cons of the various PSPs out there..A client(without a merchant bank account) is keen to use Paypal but I am hesitant because of a percieved 'amateurish' feel to Paypal, or am I mistaken about that? Any advice would be appreciated folks
Regards
Mick

Can you elaborate on this mick please?

Links to/from what for example?
Do you mean login and administration?

Hi Daren
just the links from Google to their info site (protx.com) or have I got a bizarre problem with my browser?

I think you just identified the nub of your problem.

The PROTX website is online and, unlike their Payment Service Provision, has been available all weekend.

To answer your other question about PSP perception.....

There are many payment services available, and many that integrate with Actinic
http://www.actinic.co.uk/services/online-payment.htm

No PSP is 100% infallable, however in terms of perception you probably want to look for a PSP that either has a reliable, trusted perception for the customers (e.g. big names such as WorldPay or PROTX) or that has a very customisable payment page which can be modified to look the same as the website from which people are sent from (i.e. the Actinic pages) to instill some continuity and trust during the checking out process.

Ok thanks for that Daren, you more or less confirmed what I was thinking about the PSPs. Puzzled over the problem with Protx site tho...even Mozilla refuses to find the site.
