    osCommerce comes with a default PAYPAL util, but afaik It's not the best. If you search for the top 10 contributions on oscommerce.com I think there is a rather popular payment mod that will handle what your looking for.

    You're probably better off using something like paypal to start out unless you already have a merchant account.

    I dont have a merchant account . I take it i need to get in contact with my bank to set one up yeah?
    Pay pal seems to be active on the store which is cool but a credit card option is the target im aiming for.

    You can accept payment via credit card using Paypal if you have a premium business account.
    The other option would be to sign up with the likes of 2checkout

    Yes you need to talk to your bank to get a merchant account. I've heard that Ulster bank are giving good rates and they can be negotiated with also.
    You need to check out the costs of chargebacks aswell. There can be a fairly hefty penalty.
