I've worked alot with Paypoint.net and written an AM Gateway but haven't got round to publishing it yet. However, one word of warning, their API is an absolute mess.

If I could pick any Gateway now, I'd seriously consider Protx, their is an AM Gateway implementation and their API is nicely designed and pretty comprehensive.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Joe
