What are Bonanzle's Limitations on Accepting Money Order as Payment?

Until you have at least 3 positive feedback on your seller account, buyers in your booth will need to pay with Google Checkout or Paypal. We have implemented this measure for the protection of our buyers, since it is much more difficult (read: basically impossible) for them to recapture their funds if a transaction goes bad where they paid with money order, whereas with Google Checkout and Paypal they have the protection of their credit card company.

If you would like to accept money order for your transactions, there are two solutions: One is to import your feedback from eBay , so you can instantly reach the 3 feedback minimum. The other is to accepts other forms of payment until you reach the feedback minimum naturally. In the future, we plan to also allow you to verify your identity with a credit card, but we have not had the time to implement this feature yet ( Vote for it now in the Next Up Improvements list!).

Thank you for your understanding as we try to make Bonanzle a safe shopping environment that our buyers can depend on.
