Hello guys, I want to know what Paypal alternative is best for Indian freelancers? thanks

one very good alternative i found is amazon payment.

 

[sonusandhu]

What method do you use to get payment bank direct deposit or cheque ?

@pratikb - Does Amazon payments allow non-us applications?

@sonusandhu - You can also try Moneybookers.

I aint big to recieve cash.

^ Aah ok! The OP's query was for payment service for Indian Freelancers so its obviously for receiving payments I suppose.

 

[sonusandhu]

Yes for receiving payments

Anyone using https://www.alertpay.com seen it few times on various sites any reviews or opinions would be great

^ Used it once or twice. But fees are high. Even for Withdrawal you need to pay.

Currently there is no other service that can match paypal. It is the most reliable , widespread online payment option . due to RBI we only cant use it to its fullest potential .
