Increase Sales by Accepting Credit Card Payments

If you haven’t already started selling your products and services through your website, jump on it and add a credit card payment option! Accepting plastic can increase your sales a whopping 20%.

It has also been shown that those who use credit cards make more frequent purchases than those who pay in cash. Accepting plastic also ensures your customer’s ability to pay. It takes only seconds to verify if funds are available and the money is deposited in your account within 2-3 business days. Credit card payments allow you to take advantage of your loyal international customers. It’s fast, easy, and automatically takes care of the problems associated with currency differences.

So what are you waiting for? There are two ways you can start accepting credit cards from your site: setting up your own merchant account, or setting up a third party merchant in exchange for a fee. Both methods have their advantages. Having your own merchant account accords your business with a certain amount of professionalism and transaction costs are usually much lower. On the other hand, going through a third party can be convenient to use when you just want to test the water to see how things are, since they take care of everything for you.
