The Paypal version looked promising, but my understanding is you have to be a business. Maybe just plain old Paypal, using a smartphone is an option for me, but I still worry about being scammed.
I was told about this one today - http://www.ourphoneswipe.com/index.php - and you can sign up as an individual.

There is a $30 monthly fee with the PayPal Virtual Terminal. Eats into the account if you do not do transactions regularly.

I have also had issues when trying to enter the CC Expiration Date. The field is populated with MM YYYY initially. When you select the field the MM goes away but the start position is still at the end of the field and won't let you enter the month (same thing with the year field). Took a lot of frustrating attempts before I figured this out. I was using a Nook so your experience may be different.

Forgot to mention ... when you enter the Month or Year field ... backspace a few times and you should be OK.

Officially for $10 you can be a business, go get a DBA from the county clerk. That said with paypal the main motivation for requiring that is to force you to charged transactions so you aren't doing the free friends and family transfers there are many other reasons they will try to get you to elevate your account anyway. It doesn't hurt to try and see if they will let you set up an account even without a DBA. If you have enough transactions to justify swiping credit cards you definitely are a business.
