Pampered Manhattanites fail to generate passion (San Jose Mercury News)

Those who found the overlapping lives of the characters in ``Crash'' too contrived should stay away from ``Heights,'' a Merchant-Ivory-produced melodrama.

Your business is successful, but now your ready to take it to the next level and begin accepting credit card transactions, or you have already taken this step but your feeling that your merchant account provider has high fees and your not sure what to do, or what other providers are out there?

Just in transaction fees alone if one provider is charging you 35 cents per transaction and another Merchant account provider charges 25 cents you are already saving 10 cents per transaction.

If you process over 1000 transactions per month thats already $100 per month savings and over one year this amounts to $1,200.

Merchant Accounts can make or break your business, whether it is online, retail, phone, mail, or wireless. Every Merchant Account provider has fees that can affect your business in different ways.

We have compared the best merchant account providers currently in the business and we have detailed their fees so you know exactly how much you will be charged.

Alternative Online Payment Systems

Author: Godfrey Heron

One of the most frequently asked questions I get as a
webmaster is "can you setup an ecommerce system for
our company?"

For most businesses venturing into ecommerce, e-payment
means accepting credit cards. This involves setting up a
complex system including a SECURE order page/shopping cart
software, a merchant account (basically a bank account that
receives the credit card proceeds), and a credit card
processing service. Care has to be taken to ensure that
the shopping cart is compatible with the authorization service.
All the various elements need to be compatible and interface
with each other.

While the bulk of Internet ecommerce is still transacted using
credit cards, there has been steady inroads being made by
alternative methods of settling e-transactions. These Web
Payment Services (WPS) have ingeniously utilized the most popular
application on the internet "e-mail", to appeal to customers.

By using an existing platform to launch their services, WPS
providers have enjoyed wide appeal with customers worldwide.
The largest of these, PAYPAL, has approximat....[MORE]

The Ins and Outs of Merchant Accounts

Author: Robert Levings

THE INS AND OUTS OF MERCHANT ACCOUNTS
By Robert Levings, President, EasyPay123

Merchant accounts are necessary in order to accept payments made by credit card from your customers, whether you are operating a retail store or an online business. The following article answers the key questions that you may have regarding merchant accounts. It is part of a series of articles offered by EasyPay123 to help merchants understand the many facets of processing credit card payments.

1. Why Do I Need a Merchant Account?

Merchant accounts provide you with the ability to accept credit card payments from customers for goods and services. A merchant account establishes a relationship between your business, a bank and a credit card processor such that funds generated from credit card sales are deposited into your bank account on a regular basis, less merchant account fees (to be discussed later).

Without a merchant account, your customers will not be able to pay you using their credit card. Given that credit card payments are still the dominant form of payment on the Internet, this would place you at a competitive disadvantage in a highly competitive business environment.

2. What Are the Different Types of Merchant Accounts?

There are two primary kinds of merchant accounts that are issued, depending upon your method of capturing the credit card information at the time a payment is made.

The first type of merchant account is called a ìcard presentî, ìsignature-basedî or ìretailî merchant account. This type of account is issued to merchants whose customers will be physically present at the time of payment. In such a case, you would be able to inspect the card and the signature on the reverse of the c....[MORE]

Increase Sales with Payment Solutions

Author: David Bell

Take a second and imagine your shopping on a website, find the product you've been looking for, and as you go to the order form to purchase it, you find out that the company doesn't accept payment online. Instead, you must mail a check. If you were like me, you would probably click off the site and search for another company that offers the same products and *does* accept payment online, whether it is by credit card or online check. It doesn't take a super, intelligent person to realize that it is inconvenient, time consuming, and adds on lag time till you get your purchase when you must sit down, write out a check, and mail it. That is why it is extremely important that you offer some type of online payment solution for your e-business.
Accepting credit cards is the most well known way to accept payment on the Internet. Almost everyone has a credit card and by accepting his or hers, it makes customers' ordering process much more convenient and time saving, not to mention it encourages them to purchase from you. Accepting credit cards has become a ne....[MORE]

Third Party Credit Card Processing Vs. Having Your Own Merch

Author: Josh Greth


by: Josh Greth

We all know that accepting credit cards is the key to online sales. Unfortunately, most merchants are unaware that acquiring a merchant account can actually save them money. And in many cases, big money!

For this experiment, we will use a fictional character named Bill. Bill owns and operates a great online resources for marketing tools and resources. Bills website is a membership based website, and therefore could potentially be approved for both third party processing and an internet merchant account. Bill starts off processing his business with a popular third party processor who offers him the following plan:

Start Up FeeNone
Monthly FeeNone
Transaction Fees 13.5% (Initial or One Time)
15.0% (Recurring)

Bills sets up his business with this popular third party processor and charges $30 per month. He has built an extensive reciprocal link exchange directory, has purchased some PPC advertising on a few of the best search engines, and has reached a excellent spot in the content based search listings for the top 5 search engines. His customer base has grown from zero before accepting credit cards, to 150 members, is just one month.

Choosing a Merchant Account Provider

Author: Mary Hedden

When looking for a merchant account provider, it is important to do a lot of research. You do not want to pay too much or sign up with a disreputable company. However, you do need to keep in mind that once you do sign up it could take up to a week for your application to be approved once it has been submitted.

There are three main factors that you should consider when selecting a merchant account provider.

1. Price
2. Integrity
3. Customer Service

Price (Merchant Account Rates and Fees)

When shopping for a merchant account, it is important to understand all of the rates and fees that the merchant account provider charges.

You will typically be charged the following fees:

Monthly Fee - Normally around $25 US and could vary depending on whether you meet your minimum monthly transactions.

Discount Rate- Percentage taken from a sale that the merchant pays to cover the costs of the transactions and the risk involved. Usually 1.5 percent to 3.5 percent.
