What is the safe Payment Methods for online transaction on a commercial website that selling stuff?

How about E-Gold, it's the same like Paypal right ?

1) Paypal
2) Google checkout
3) Western Union (i think)
in my opinion Paypal is the best option, but some countrys not listed in the supported countries list. so u can go for moneybookers. if u using it for a website best is 2co (2 Checkout) & 2nd is GoogleCheckout
Papyal is best option, safest and biggest online payment commpany.
I would definatly use paypal, its the most safe and secure, no matter what anyone tells ya.
