Credit Card Vendors

[Guest willie]

The gift certificate thread has me curios.

Some of us oldschoolers need to update

If and when we decide to accept credit cards, who are some of the better vendors out there?

IE: What company do you like for processing your cards and what do you take?

Thanks

How does that work ?

They come in with Visa, how does it go into your Paypal ?

I have a computer for them to use less fraud that way and works well for the road tints also they just use there computer to pay

I explain to the custys we have there best intrest in mind so if they have a paypal account we take credit cards that way so no identity theft that way no credit card number theft and so on and paypal is good with fraud protection

Yup, that's how I do it.

Add it to your webpage and they can pay on your website with a credit card without a paypal account.

Using Paypal is real expensive compared to credit card processors. Setting up with a regular processor is easy.

As far as fraud, there are measures you can do to help eliminate it. First, swiping the card and then write down the customer;s info. Address, vehicle and including the vehicle ID number.

In 22 years I only had one fraud. Never lost a dime and it helped catch the moron who did it.

Depends on how much you're going to use it.

If I used it everyday I'd go with a small business solution credit card processor, pay the small monthly fee, pay the smaller % fee, have a machine and/or the ability to call them in (when I'm mobile).

Considering I bet I might use it twice.....paypal on my website seemed like the way to go.

Plus, people can order gift certificates via my website now.
