Do businesses need to accept credit cards online to be successful?

In a word, yes. First, consider your customers. People don't shop online if they are hunting for bargain basement prices. They shop online for convenience sake. The sooner your website or business is set up to accept credit cards online, the sooner you'll be offering that convenience.

What about profits?

Whether you sell goods or services online, once you're up and running and can accept credit cards online you are more likely to enjoy higher profits.

People who pay with cash tend to be more frugal with their purchasing.  Businesses that accept credit cards will attract customers that tend to pay more.

What about the costs?

First of all, we don't charge set-up fees for our Internet, wireless or retail services. Considering that banks charge new customers as much as $400 for application and start-up fees, our cost effective Internet merchant account fees will go a long way in saving you money.

What's more, our competitive service fees still work out to be cheaper than accepting cash and checks. When comparing credit card costs to processing checks and cash, the costs for checks are about 4.0% with cash processing averaging at 4.8%. The average cost of credit card processing comes out to 2.7%. * When you think about the handling (and counting) that cash and check transactions involve, it starts to make sense.
