    I am hoping some one can help me. I have person looking to buy some images from me. They are based in the U.S. I am looking to see what is the best and most secure way of accepting paymnets.

    I know I can use Paypal however not everyone is comfortable with Paypal. Is a wire transfer from their bank to mine a safe thing to do? Is it safe to give my account details out for wire transfers?

    Any advice?

    For a once off transfer, consider Western Union, but people should actually more comforable with something like Paypal.

    Western Union's charges are very high. Make sure you take there charges into account and decide who pays them.
