Payment Gateways

If you want to process over the internet you will need a payment gateway.

The gateway sits between your shopping card software (or POS software if you are a physical store) and your Merchant Account Provider. The Merchant Account provider ALWAYS must be the one who sets you up – you can do it yourself but you need information that only the Merchant Account Provider can give you. Additionally, many times the Merchant Account Provider refers the merchant to a gateway.

In our case we offer both solutions, and can help you increase transactions by offering a payment gateway with your shopping cart.

How to Manage and Maintain your Merchant Account

Today over 75 percent of all customers use credit cards to make purchases, so only accepting cash or checks simply doesn’t make good business sense to any type of business but especially to a telephone or internet-based business.

 

A merchant account is a means of accepting credit cards and other forms of electronic payments from your customers. Merchant accounts are offered by banks and other financial institutions allowing businesses to accept cashless payments. Unfortunately more than 28% of all businesses are declined or turned down for a merchant account because they were not prepared.

 

The bad news is that being a telemarketing based business significantly increases the potential risk for banks to process for your business.  The good news is by reading this document and with a little advance planning, we can really stack the odds in your favor for being approved and minimize the chances of being denied.  At AVPS, we specialize in hard-to-place merchants and high risk merchants with chargeback problems.

If you follow the below advice, you’ll increase your chances of approval:

ü      Find out who is in charge of approving/underwriting merchant accounts and make an appointment with them. 

ü      Realize that it can be difficult for an outsider to understand your company’s business model. Provide any client testimonials, products, service literature, video clips, etc. When your products are actually seen your business is better understood. 

ü      If your product and mission statement are understood; it’s more likely a merchant account will be approved.

ü      AVPS can teach you how to promote your idea and business model to a bank for merchant account acceptance and at the same time educate you on the dos and don’ts of processing to minimize your risk and maximize your profits.

 

AVPS utilizes different banks that cater to different markets. AVPS has the experience and knowledge to match your company’s model with a bank that specializes in your type of business.

Furthermore once we assist you in obtaining a merchant account, you’ll need to keep in compliance with Visa and MasterCard’s rules and regulations. Again this is where AVPS’s experience pays off in a big way. AVPS has over twenty years in the credit card processing industry. We already know some of the pitfalls that can cause your merchant account to be revoked and we know how to avoid them.

If you have been denied a merchant account for any reason try and try again. Don’t give up. The above tips will increase your odds of gaining a merchant account, so revise your game plan and resubmit your application to AVPS.

Accept Credit Card Payment Online

With the rise in e-commerce, the ability to accept credit card payments holds much significance to one’s business. Online credit card payments are considered to be one of the most preferred payment methods in online shopping and other e-business services.

Every online merchant would want to make the payment option simple, fast and secured for his customers. Most of the shopping cart software allows the customer to check in and out with no difficulty, storing the information entered onto a secure server. SSL encrypted websites make it safer for the end user, easing some of the uncertainties about their personal information being viewed by hackers or any other online visitor.

The objective of having an ecommerce business is to generate sales at a speed. And to achieve such momentum in one’s business, one needs to offer the facility of accepting online credit card payments especially those visitors who make their purchases instantly on liking a product. This is one of the reasons why an online merchant should accept credit cards on their web site as it suits the needs of such impulse buyers.

There are various ways a customer can pay when making an online purchase. Some of these may include a call over a telephone, mail a check or by a pay pal account. These payment methods are as secured as any credit card payment, but each of these methods require a separate step for the order to be processed. Resulting in a series of actions by the time the order is confirmed. No impulsive buyer would want to go through a long procedure of paying the amount for a desired product. Nevertheless in online credit card payments, the payment transaction is completed in one final step during processing of the order. In other words, accepting credit cards payments online makes it more convenient for the end users to pay and shop online reducing the stress of going through any other lengthy payment methods. The choice of accepting credit card payments online has proved to be beneficial for both the customer as well as the merchant.
