In the 'good old days' folks used to just write out cheques and send them in payment for goods/services. Given that this is becoming less common, is there an cheap/easy method by which a small business (sole trader) can accept card and/or other payments, especially from distant customers? I believe the charges and other rules associated with accepting credit card payments for example make that option impractical and/or expensive for businesses with small turnovers or dealing with small transactions. What'd be the best alternative?

Cheers as always.
