Here is a suggestion you should try implementing to make it easier for our buyers to understand we accept credit card payments directly.
When under global seller preferences we pick the type of cards we accept, it should put into our ads and also into our checkout payment types drop down menu the following kind of text example: "Visa/Mastercard direct payment" or "American Express direct payment", etc..
The way it is now it just says "Visa/Mastercard", "American Express".
This is confusing to most people because they just assume that you mean you accept it through paypal when you offer both as I do. Somehow they just don't see the Direct CC Payment instructions that are show when they select it if they are selecting it at all.
Sadly some people just need things spelled out explicitly for them, otherwise they just don't get it. Please really consider this as it will make things alot easier for both sellers and buyers in general.
I'm sure there is a way to do this and still have it also pass just the "Visa/Mastercard" along to eBay to put in their listing payment types info. Thanks for your consideration.
