I hope this is a good & important topic to discuss about Srilankan Payment Gateways & International payment gateways supporting Srilankan Vendors.

Srilankan Payment gateways / Payment Processors

International Payment Gateways support for srilankan Webmasters / Vendor Accounts

Paypal: Very limited Authorization for srilankan account holders, we can send / pay any others payment but we can't accept / withdraw from paypal. For alternative withdrawal method use 2co or plimus.

2checkout :There is no need of big introduction about 2co, here is the short details about it: Openening fee just 49$ and transaction fee 3.8$ per transaction, minimum withdrawal limit 150$. Supporting withdrawal method payoneer debit card, bank transfer,echeck. Good thing is 2co accept paypal payments,ACH, & major credit cards payments. Bad thing is when a user/client open dispute via paypal, then you need to answer their questions immediately , if you delay more than 12-24 hours, then your payment refund(I have a bad experience).Overall 2co staffs very friendly. You can talk them via live support,email and phone calls.

Bad thing is if your account login failed atleast 2 time, then your account will be lock immediately, then you need to send proof of address,photo proof,etc details to security@moneybookers.com ,then you will receive answer within 7 days .
