Cheap Credit Card Processing
When it comes to accepting credit card orders on your website and choosing a credit card processing service, you'll see there are so many options available that is easy to get confused.
Some of them cost you a lot upfront with instead, lower fees per transaction, and some others have a cheap upfront cost with higher transaction fees.
And amazingly, there are still some companies that ask for high fees on both parts.
That is why it is very wise to do enough research at first and find the best and most affordable solution, so you can rest assured you are making maximum net profits on each sale.
When it comes to choosing a cheap payment processor, here are two things to consider:
1. Services with a FREE Startup Cost
Are you on a tight budget and don't want to pay $50-$100 upfront just to get your order processing system up and running?
Do you prefer to give a higher percent to the credit card processing company, and instead skip the upfront cost?
If so, then this group of companies are perfect for you. What you need to do is to simply open a free account with them, and then start receiving sales.
Some of the best credit card processing services that offer FREE startup are:
This is the best option for the short term, but if you're looking for a long-term profitable option, you may want to use the second choice...
2. Services with Lower Fees per Transaction (aka Sale)
You can save a lot of money and have higher net profits per sale by using a service that asks for a small fee upfront, but instead you enjoy a lower transaction fee forever.
For example if a company from Group 1 above is free at first but then takes a big 9% of your profits on every product sale, a company from Group 2 will only take 4%.
So this is your choice if you like to save money in short term and give out more profits in the long term, or think for more long-term profits.
Here are some payment processing services that come with low startup fee and then lower transaction fees:
