NO SETUP OR APPLICATION FEES
for users of our Gateway Service.

Our gateway service is separate from your merchant account. A merchant account is required to accept credit cards using our service. If you currently have a merchant account service you are all set and can skip this section. If you do not currently accept credit cards or are looking for better rates than you are currently paying read on. 

You can apply for a Merchant Account at the same time you order your Gateway Service. 

Understanding your merchant provider’s rates and fees

All banks and merchant providers require "transaction fees" from you for accepting credit cards. Typically, these fees are broken down into 3 categories: a discount rate, a transaction fee, and monthly fees. 

Discount Rate

This is the percentage of the total transaction amount that the bank will usually deduct prior to transferring your deposit into your bank account. Typical discount rates range from 2.5% to 5%, depending on your type of business and other factors.

Our partner Merchant Account Service currently offers a rate of 2.25% on Visa and MasterCard transactions with our service.

Transaction Fees

This is a flat amount that you pay for each transaction. Typical transaction fees range from 30 cents to 50 cents per transaction.

Our partner Merchant Account Service currently charges 30 cents per transaction.

Monthly Fees

These are fees charged for other account related services, such as customer service, your monthly statement, network access fees, and minimum monthly fees.

Our partner Merchant Account Service currently charges $10.00 monthly statement fee and there is a minimum monthly fee of $25.00.
