How long will it take to get approved?
Approval for a credit card merchant account takes an average of 5-7 business days, with many getting approved sooner. This average is dependent upon the amount of information filled out on the application and the documentation provided at the time the application is submitted.
-
What credit cards will I be able to accept?
You can accept VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express card payments.
-
Can I accept international credit cards?
You will be able to accept credit cards whether they’re domestic or international. However, all payments will be processed in US dollars only (either Canadian or US dollars only for Canadian merchants).
-
Can I use my existing Merchant Account?
Unfortunately, no. You will have to apply for a new merchant account with our provider in order for the service to work within our applications.
-
Can I swipe credit cards?
Yes, click here to learn more about the approved credit card swipers available.
-
What if I want an eCheck (ACH) only merchant account?
With our Flat Fee account (US Only) you don’t pay a monthly fee, so you’ll only pay for what you process (either credit cards or ACH). But if, for whatever reason, you’d like an account that limits you to only process ACH payments, you can apply for that here.
