Get A Merchant Account For your Business

Finding the Best Merchant Account

Finding the right merchant services provider is not as easy as it used to be. With so many more credit card processing companies out there trying to sell you on their merchant services and stating they are the best merchant services provider with the lowest merchant services rates, it is hard to know who to believe. However, finding just the lowest merchant services account as far as rates go is only part of the battle when finding the best merchant account available. Not only is it important to lock in the best merchant account rates, it is critical that you work with a merchant services company who has a reputation as knowledgeable, with proper fraud and security standards in place, and excellent customer service. From experience, I have seen more than my share of merchants with one of the top merchant service providers leave but not because they were disappointed about their low merchant services rates, but rather, they were disappointed about the services that their merchant service provider was giving them. The merchant service provider was either unresponsive to their needs when it came to high chargeback rates, or new credit card merchant account laws implemented by Visa and MasterCard, or they felt that the merchant account was more trouble than it was worth because they had to deal with customers charging back, wanting returns, or they felt it was not worth the money they were paying their merchant account services provider.

It was these same merchants though who later realized that in the world of debit cards and credit cards being so easily available, if they were not going to accept credit cards or accept debit cards, they would lose business to those merchants with merchant accounts who did accept credit cards.  The best credit card processor and merchant account processor can help these merchants understand the reality of needing a merchant account.

Companies such as First Data/FDIS Colorado have been around for years, and they are in fact the leader in the credit card processing industry.
