1.
What is a discount rate?
A discount rate
is the percentage of each transaction that you pay to your card processor
for processing your credit card sales. These fees are largely influenced
by the percentage that Master Card and Visa charge us.

2.
What if I have a retail storefront, and need a P.O.S. terminal?
If you have a retail
store where every transaction will be "swiped" then we suggest leasing
or purchasing a Point of Sale Terminal. If every transaction is not
going to be "swiped", then either our PC
Software Program, or Virtual
Terminal / Realtime Link solution most likely is your answer.
Please visit our Equipment Page
for information on our POS Terminals, or contact
us if you would like to discuss alternative Retail / P.O.S. solutions.

What if my credit is bad?
Very few applications
get declined. (And credit (or lack of) is not typically the reason).
If you have terrible credit, your discount rate/fees may be slightly higher,
but most likely you will still get approved. About 99% of our applications
get approved.
