You were all very kind back in July in advising me abut charges.
Since then, my "client" base has increased, and so far all have paid me by PayPal, Today, I got a general distribution email from PP telling me about new charge structures, and it is unintelligible, but I've read (OK on YouTube) about people having issues with them.
Most of my clients are in the USA and so pay me in $USD for which PP take an extra percentage. - I'm not trying to "get away" with anything, and I'm not really trying to run a business - I'm not making a mint, and don't really want to have more than one client session a day, as I don't use a stopwatch - in fact, some "hours" last for two! and most seem to become friends.
However, I'd just like to investigate other payment options.
So ...For those who teach, or are taught online - how do you charge/pay? What is your "payment gateway"? (that's a thing now apparently).
I'd be really grateful for some advice.
Thanks in advance,

A lot of people use Wordpress blogs as their web presence - these have access to a number of third party payment processing services/plugins. This might be a way forward if you host your own site but might be useable without. They all charge a Commission of subscription fee of some sort though!
