Each company does business differently. Some conduct sales in a store. Others make most of their money at tradeshows. Some look to expand online. Choosing the right type of merchant services account helps businesses to substantially increase sales. MerchantAccount.com helps our clients select the best payment options for all of our clients to maximize profits.
Merchant Services: Choosing the Right Account Type for Your Business
The best way to choose the merchant services program that is right for your business is to ask yourself two questions:
- How do we currently process sales?
- How would we like to process sales moving forward?
The answers to these two questions can help you integrate the right merchant services account into your business plan. For instance, you may currently only conduct sales in a store. However, moving forward you may be planning to build a website and sell your product online. In this case you may need to utilize both point of sale and internet merchant services account systems. Below you can find a brief description of each type of merchant services account.
Merchant Services Account Types:
Point of Sale Systems (often referred to as POS systems) - Credit card processing terminals are installed in your store. One central machine can hold several account numbers to accommodate accounting needs.
Mail Order/Telephone Order Systems (often referred to as MOTO systems) - These systems are used by companies who make sales over the phone or through the mail.
Wireless System - Wireless terminals can be used remotely - at a tradeshow or in the field - to process credit card sales without the need for a stationary terminal.
Internet Systems - Businesses that make sales online can process credit cards on their website with these payment gateways.
