Do I need a Merchant Account to sell my products online?

No. You can make use of a Credit Card Payment Gateway that acts as a Super Merchant, with you effectively making use of their merchant account. You pay them a small premium for this service, but the advantage is that you do not require your own merchant account.

In you prefer you can open your own merchant account with a bank, and then just use the Payment Gateway to integrate with your merchant account.

E-Shop will integrate your Payment Gateway into your site - we have experience with most of the leading service providers in any country.
