We are developing a b2b website which connect buyers and manufacturers (sellers) of a certain product.

The seller has the ability to list their product on our site and the buyer to search for these products and purchase them.

Each product offering listed on the site is custom manufactured and has an expiry date by which it has to be bought and manufactured. If a buyer does not purchase the product by this date the listing expires.

We plan to allow the seller to collect 0-100% of the product sale price upfront as a booking fee to secure the manufacturing of the product.

We will charge a fee to the seller to list their product on the website.

Hence there are 2 possible financial transactions through the website;
1. the listing fee the seller pays to us
2. the booking fee (if one is set by the seller) the buyer pays to the seller to secure the manufacturing of the product - ideally this would go directly from the buyer to the seller

What payment solution(s) would you suggest for such a service?

I use Moneybookers and Paypal Bit I heard that Google has a good one.

It almost looks like an advertising plug but I don't see any link so thats cool.

Payment methods? I still say that Pay Pal is the safest but they limit some users in some Countries so you have to have like MB or Google Pay

It sounds like an interesting concept.

Put it up in the Review section or Advertise your Website when you have it ready.

Good luck!

I think it depends on what the price is going to be on average for the buyer & seller...
having something manufactured could be $xxxx-$xxxxx which will be a problem for paypal... they will lock accounts if it was me I would get a real merchant account and offer the service of payments, this will make you stand out and attract more listings & you'll look very pro. (which is what you need in a b2b site)
