>- Must allow people without credit cards to pay you money
>- Must be easily transferable to bank accounts or via ATMs without high fees
>- Should ideally be currency independent / not charge you for conversion
>- Must be completely skinable to add to your site
>- Should come with a nice API to tie into

- Usable internationally - "now available in 14 countries worldwide" does 
not qualify as international in my mind
- Should allow transactions to occur seamlessly on your site, not have user 
forwarded to a different domain for payment (not sure if this falls under API)

I think you covered all the important points. Interesting post, looking 
forward to seeing how it develops.
