There are three types of accounts that can be used to accept transfers from clients as well as your salary: personal, business, or corporate. Any of these can be set up just for the purpose of accepting the payments for purchases or an already active account can be used.

Personal Accounts – Current average volume is $20,000 of transfers per month. Typical transaction however will be around $2,000-$3,000 per transfer. Commission from each received and forwarded transfer is 5%, thus with current volume commission will equal $1,000 per month.
