Three Factors That All Merchants Should Consider
The world tends to be moving toward a cashless society. In the recent times, we believe that all transactions will be made using credit and debit cards along with other forms of electronic payment. This view seems realistic judging by the increase in credit and debit card usage. Therefore, it is very important for merchants to know the facts about payment processing to accept credit and debit cards.
The good news is that PurePay can make this easy for you.
In this blog we will discuss about three fundamental factors to focus on when setting up payment processing.
Payment Processing Technology
Given all the options, selecting the right technology to process payments can be mind-blogging. Firstly, it’s best to analyze your business needs, your customer’s payment preferences and your preference on payment acceptance. Do you want to sell in stores alone or online as well? Do you want to avail mobile wallets, such as Google Pay, to your customers? Are you willing to accept payments remotely?
Once your ways of accepting payments are decided you must look at hardware and software that meets those needs. Following are the two options for accepting in-store payment:
- A smart terminal that can securely process most types of payment;
- A more advanced POS terminal that can do the same plus integrate with your other business systems.
You will need a virtual terminal for remote sales. In addition, you may need a card reader for your mobile device. It is important that the technology you invest in can be upgraded in the future according to your needs. Which is why Purepay delivers scalable technology, built from the ground up to be fully expandable to grow with business expansion. Along with the availability of more than 150 alternative payment methods, allowing freedom and privilege to your customers and you to choose.
Payment Processing Security
Credit card theft, fraud and data breach are potential threats to your business. But in good time, payment security is advancing faster than ever, enabling us to protect our merchants. Now we can secure our merchants’ transactions with:
