accept

I'm going to show you how to quickly get set up to automatically accept credit card purchases on your site. In addition, I'll also be discussing the benefits of accepting:

Recently, I tried to purchase a money order at the local Post Office only to be told that my credit card payment was not acceptable. The Post Office official stated that I could only use cash or a debit card - neither requirements I could satisfy at the time.

To increase sales on your website, you must accept credit cards. To process credit cards, you could apply for a merchant account through your bank or other financial institution.

When it comes to accepting credit cards for your business it's important to make sure you've taken the necessary steps ahead of time before jumping in to purchase a merchant account. Preparing yourself will help to streamline the approval process, get your business setup faster, and save you money. The quicker you are setup, the faster you will be making sales.

The most difficult aspect of selling something from your web site is figuring out how to accept payment. Asking people to send checks is an option, and it will result in a few sales. Various services offer assorted payment methods. All of them will result in a few sales. But the single most important service you must offer is the ability to accept credit card payments. In the 18 months that I have been selling templates from my web site, easily 90% of my sales have come through credit card transaction, although I offer two alternative payment methods.
