What is a merchant account? Why do I need one?
A merchant account gives a business the ability to accept credit cards as payment for the company’s goods and services. This provides your customers with an extremely popular payment option, beyond cash and checks. Studies have shown that merchants can typically increase their business by 30 – 70% or more – sometimes even hundreds of percent! Plus, customers are more willing to purchase higher cost goods using a payment method that offers them repayment flexibility. It is projected that by 2002, credit card transactions will account for 98% of Internet sales, equaling 55.6 billion!
