No internet business can hope to survive without the ability to accept and process credit cards. Whether you're selling cloth diapers, SEO services, or adult entertainment, it is absolutely imperative that you find a way to open a merchant account.
Credit card processing services can seem like a big expense -- not to mention a big commitment if you are required to sign a longterm contract -- but think about what you have to lose. Most consumers these days are armed with credit cards when they shop online. Sure, they could send a check through the mail, but that takes time and effort. In addition to the obvious time lost waiting for the check to arrive and the funds to clear, you risk losing the sale altogether when your "customer" gets distracted by life and forgets to send payment. Let's face it, we all like instant gratification, and that means being able to pay for the produts you want, when you want them. When you open a merchant account, you can begin processing sales by credit card almost immediately.
Instead of thinking about credit card processing as a luxury your business cannot afford, think about all the profits you stand to lose if you don't accept Visa, Master Card, and American Express. Credit card sales will be a huge part of your business. Don't miss out!
