Web.com Sellers Simplify with MasterCard

Web.com, a provider of online marketing services and solutions, announced last week that they will be using MasterCard's Simplify Commerce as the payment provider for its new Take-a-Payment service.

The 3 million small business owners that currently use Web.com's Take-a-Payment service (which offers consumers the ability to pay invoices, pay service fees or make donations) will be using the merchant account and payments gateway that is provided by Simplify Commerce.

No specific pricing information was provided in the formal announcement, but Simplify Commerce (which integrates with a long list of ecommerce platforms including NOPComemrce, Prestashop, Magento and others) currently charges a 2.85% transaction fee plus 30 cents per transaction, but without any setup or monthly fees.
