What
is a Merchant Account?
A merchant account is
a special type of bank account issued by a merchant
processing bank that allows a business to accept
credit cards such as Visa and Mastercard, debit
cards, gift cards and other forms of payment
cards. This acceptance is also known as payment
processing, credit card processing or merchant
card processing.
Why
do I need one?
In order for your business
to be able to take credit card payments, you
need a Merchant Account with a bank. Different
banks have different rates. There can be a LOT
of HIDDEN fees, and many times fees can be increased
without your approval. At CardPaymentsPro.com
we will get you the best deal and let you lock
in your rates. We can do this because 1) we
are an independent agent that works wit several
banks to get you the best offer and 2) we are
willing to accept much lower fees for our work,
so you save money.
If
your Merchant Account Services are so GREAT,
do you have one?
YES.
In fact, I learned about all the fees because
I had a Merchant Account with a well-known company
and over time I was paying higher and higher
fees. So I left them and went out to look for
a better deal. I taught myself all about the
industry. I definitely have a merchant account
with one of the companies I represent for you.
I know how they operate. I know I can trust
that my statement won't change and I'm getting
a great deal.
What
about taking credit cards over the Internet?
I also have an online
business, so I use Authorize.net with
our providers because it is a simple and popular
way to do website credit card transactions.
