Elements of Credit
Card Processing
|
+ Virtual Terminal Service
Virtual Terminal service offers
merchants a low-cost merchant account with high-value features.
With, your credit card processing runs right over the Internet.
Just enter your transactions through the Net wherever
you are at your place of business, your home, or
through your laptop at a tradeshow or client site.
+ Internet Processing
Are you accepting credit cards
from your customers on-line and in real-time? Do you want
to? Join the e-commerce revolution with the merchant account.
+ Merchant Accounts
An account setup by a bank which
allows you to accept credit cards. Your merchant account
will deposit collected funds into your business's checking
account every 24 hours.
+ Discount Rate
A percentage that is paid to the
credit card company on each transaction. If a customer makes
a credit card purchase worth $10.00 and your discount rate
is 2.4%, you pay $0.24 for the $10 sale. A competitive discount
rate is roughly 2.40%. Keep in mind that discount rates
on the web are higher than that of brick and mortar stores.
Make sure the rates that are quoted to you are for INTERNET
sales.
+ Gateway Processor
A gateway processor charges your
customers' credit cards via the web and sends the funds
to your merchant account.
+ Monthly Processing Minimum
The monthly processing minimum
is the MINIMUM monthly fee you must pay to the credit card
company. A competitive monthly minimum is approx $30. Example:
If you sell $1000 in goods over one month, your total Discount
Rate (see explanation above) would be $23.90. This amount
does not meet the $30 minimum so the credit card company
will round your charge up to $30. If the discount rate and
transaction fees exceed $30, then you have met the Monthly
Processing Minimum and the fee does not apply.
+ Real-Time Processing
This method of credit card charging
authorizes and charges the customer's credit card at the
time of purchase.
+ Off-line Processing
This method of credit card charging
allows you to capture your customers' credit card information
for charging at a later time. If you have an existing off-line
merchant account, this may be a good option for you.
+ Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
SSL is a secure web protocol that
uses 128 bit or higher encryption to keep your customer's
card number and personal information secure. More
Info...
+ Statement Fee
This charge is exactly as it sounds.
The fee you pay for the bank to generate and mail you a
statement outlining your transactions. Statement fees usually
cost between $10.00-$15.00/month.
+ Transaction Fee
The amount charged per transaction.
Most companies charge around $0.30. If you make 50 sales
per month the total transaction fee would equal (0.30 x
50 = $15.00).
