How Many Online Business Showcase their Accepted Payment Methods

Hello All.

Just a few questions here to gauge the overall census of the community.

We are an online prepaid debit card company (AccountNow). We market our business to those unable to get a credit card or bank issued debit card. The reason I am posting is for:

1. I want to see how many businesses here actually allow prepaid debit card payments?

2. How many businesses here showcase their accepted forms of payment on their websites?

I am asking this because, first of all, I want to see if our product is in fact easily accepted online (since we advertise it that way). Also, I wanted to see if people showcase their allowed payment methods, this came up after my recent Costco trip.

I have always shopped Costco with a checkbook; however, the other day I forgot so I tried using a Visa credit Card. Problem is, Costco only accepts MasterCard; ironically, this had happened to me in College too (only MC).

I think that showcasing your payment options up front may be important to customers. Say you use check2out instead of Paypal, this may be important. I want to see what everyone thinks about aligning your company with a relationship of major payment options and how it can help your company be perceived in a better/lesser light.

thanks.
