QUESTIONS
What
kind of businesses do you accept? All types
of businesses. We approve retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers,
government, home-based, mail-phone order and internet merchants!
Why are
your rates so low? We represent
several bank processers so that we can offer you the lowest credit
card rates available. The amount of volume we also do allows
us to pass down these very low rates to our new merchants. Discount
rates are approved based on the type of business you have and
the personal guarantors personal credit history. For detailed
rate information, click on our Rates Link
to review the rates we can approve you for.
What
are my purchase or lease options for processing equipment? Go back and click on the Purchase/Lease
Plans link to review plans that are available.
How soon
do I get approved and up-and-running? We pre-approve
all merchants ahead of time so that you know that you are approved
even before we start the application process. Our merchants appreciate
this service, for many merchant providers quote low rates and
pricing, but dont actually approve the merchant at these
rates, thus wasting valuable time for merchants needing immediate
merchant account approvals.
What
credit cards can I accept? We can
approve you with all the major credit cards available(Visa, Mastercard,
American Express, Discover, Diners Club, Carte Blanche and JCB).
We also can approve you with ATM/Debit cards. We automatically
approve you with the top 3(Visa/Mcard/Amex) with the option to
add others once you are assigned a merchant account.
How soon
are transactions deposited to my bank account? All
fund are directly deposited via ECH to your business checking
account within 48-72 hours on average.
Do you
accept bad credit? Yes! Since
we receive many inquiries from many types of businesses, we can
approve merchants who have bad personal credit. In fact, we approve
98% of all merchants who contact us for merchant accounts!
Do you
have any hidden fees? Unlike
most merchant providers, we pre-approve all merchants and state
exactly what rates and fees they will be charged. There are no
"so-called" hidden fees!
Are we
charged any application fees? NO! Since
we pre-approve all merchants ahead of time, we do not charge
merchants an application fee.
What
is your refund policy? Less that
2% of merchants we sign up are declined for merchant accounts.
If it so happens that none of our bank processors can approve
you merchant account, you will receive a 100% refund without
question!
What
processing equipment is best for my business? It
all depends on how you are going to accept and conduct your credit
card transactions. If you are going to card-swipe most of your
credit card transactions(retailers, restaurants etc), a hardware
terminal is best for your needs. If you are entering in non-swiped
Transactions(mail-phone
or internet orders, our software or real-time internet packages
are best suited for your needs.
Are your
processing systems easy to use? Simple
as 1-2-3! All of our systems are tailor-made to enable merchants
to easily learn to conduct immediate credit card transactions.

processing equipment.
What
kind of customer service will I receive? All
merchant receive 24-hour, 7-day/week customer support if they
have questions concerning their credit card transactions.
Can I
be approved based on company credit?Based on bank processors regulations, merchants
can get approved on companys credit history if they are
a publicly traded or non-profit company, otherwise a personal
guarantor on the merchant account will be required.
Why cant
I get approved through my local bank? Most local
banks will not accept merchants conducting non-swipe transactions(mail-phone
order, home-based, internet merchants). We specialize in approving
these types of merchants with accounts with the lowest rates
and pricing available worldwide!
Do you
accept high-risk merchants? YES! We
approved most merchants who are classified as high-risk or high-volume
accounts with the lowest rates available.
Do you
accept Non-U.S. or Overseas companies? YES!
We accept these types of businesses if the personal guarantor
resides in the U.S. and they process credit card transactions
within the U.S.
How are
the discount rates calculated? Approved
discount rates are determined on two factors: personal guarantors
credit history and type of product/service sold.
Do my
discount rates ever increase? Your discount
rates with us will only increase if the Visa/Mastercard Interchange
rate goes up(only happens every 1-2 years), which forces all
bank processors to increase merchants discount rates proportionately
across-the-board. Watch out for merchant providers who increase
your rates without your notice!
What
should I watch out for when getting a merchant account? Many merchant providers are asking for full payment
upfront before they send you application packages and actually
approving you with a merchant account. Do Not conduct business
with these providers, for if they cannot approve you with a merchant
account, they often will not refund all of the funds and charge
you processing fees for attempting to approve you with a merchant
account.
Is there
maximum limits or caps on my monthly credit card volume? NO! Beware of merchant providers that place your
merchant account on-hold because you are exceeding your approved
merchant account volume! We do not place holds on merchant accounts
if you exceed your monthly volume. If your credit card sales
are growing and you feel that your monthly volume will far surpass
the average monthly volume we set for you, all we require is
contact with our customer service department and request to have
monthly volume reviewed and adjusted to the volumes you need
for your mrchant account.
When
do I receive my merchant account statement? You
receive your monthly statement of the previous months transactions
within the first week of the new month.
How do
I apply? Once you are ready to order, just click
on our Application link and fill out the application.
An account executive will contact you within 24 hours to review
the application with you and pre-approve your merchant account
for immediate overnight delivery of your pre-approved merchant
application package.
