Easy
Credit Facility through Merchant Account
Introduction
Every
business needs some capital and support from banking and financial
services. Gone are the days when people could start a business with a
small outlet and get a loan from the local lender or a bank only on
the basis of goodwill. Even if the borrower failed to repay the loan
the lenders would be lenient and allow him to repay when he had the
money.
Times
have changed and it is an ironic situation that unless you have money
the banks do not like to open a merchant account for your company.
They have many stipulations for high-risk accounts and it is
difficult to meet the requirements sometimes and you may be denied
the merchant account or charged a very high-interest rate.
Do
you have a high-risk business?
If
you have a business helping people in their Credit Repair/ Credit
Restoration/ Credit Counseling, then the financial institutions will
treat you like an outsider and will not help at all. We, on the other
hand, are a service company and we have worked with many high-risk
companies and we are aware of the requirements that company in credit
card business might have. We realize that it is almost impossible to
work and succeed without an online presence and a merchant account.
Online
Businesses
Online
businesses have many risks and responsibilities. They do not work
directly with a customer or in other words, they may not meet the
client face to face as the credit counseling and credit repair
services are mostly completed online through a website. We realize
that you do need a merchant account and therefore, we have designed
many combinations that can help you in your online business endeavor.
Payment processing and billing are some of the issues that we can
help you with.
Denied
a merchant account?
If
you have been denied the facility of a merchant account by processors
like PayPal and First Data due to the fact that credit card is not
present during payment or the card owner does not sign the receipt,
then we have an option to take care of this as well. The requirement
of the rolling reserve is also waived off as we understand that you
may need some money to tide over short-term necessities. A fact that
we recognize is that e-commerce needs a merchant account and without
that, a company cannot succeed in the industry.
New
businesses
We
also appreciate that when a new business is just starting, there are
budgetary constraints and we open their account without any setup or
application fee. Your customers have the choice to pay through
multiple gateways, which will help you receive your payments
regularly and without any hindrance. You can receive your payments
through Visa, MasterCard, Amex or discovery etc. Though there is no
fee for setting up and application there is a fee for the services
that we provide. This charge is decided based on the history of the
business and may be slightly higher in case of a start-up. We can
cater to the businesses where there are multiple or recurring billing
systems.
Domestic
& Offshore Options
We
provide a merchant account through domestic and offshore options.
What happens is that some companies are in the high-risk group and
the local financial institutions decline to provide any kind of
assistance. It may also happen if your company is registered in
another country. In these situations, we check the feasibility and
then decide which option will be better for you. A domestic account
will be safer and have better security options. But if needed we will
help you through offshore accounts even though the rate of interest
will be slightly higher. But it is still better than not having a
merchant account at all. Both the options are possible only due to
our expertise and knowledge of the regulatory procedures. New
merchants may also need assistance when they need to use ACH
Processing/Check Processing, the check does not have to be sent to
the bank immediately. We process and help to get you the liquid funds
as soon as possible. We also guide you through the process of check
drafting.
Online
presence
This
is one aspect that is non-negotiable. Every business needs an online
presence and for all their transactions they need a virtual terminal.
These virtual terminals are essential as their clients will pay the
money online even when the credit card is not physically present and
they cannot sign the receipt. Your clients are already going through
some counseling for the right use of credit cards, as they are not
well versed in their use. Alternately, they might buy a scheme and
then try to get a refund. A chargeback after a long time may not be
allowed by many companies but we allow for the same.
Clients’
preferred mode of payment
Now,
this is a very important aspect as many merchant service providers
have limited access to payment gateways. We make sure that you can
receive payments through all the possible gateways. All major cards
are accepted. Payment gateways also encourage customers to use a
particular service. We have seen many at times that a customer goes
through the service description and opens the payment gateway and the
transaction gets canceled. This may happen due to many reasons.
The
payment gateway did not function properly.
He
did not get access to his favorite gateway or it was not available.
The
favorite mode of payment through credit card was not available.
Therefore,
we ensure that all payment gateways are accepted when you have an
account with us. At the same time, it is also important to ensure
that these gateways work smoothly all the time without any hitch.
Underwriting
A
bank or a financing company may deny you the credit facility for many
reasons. In such a scenario you will suffer and that is not
acceptable to us. We, therefore, use the multiple underwriting
methods. We take the help of many banks to underwrite the finance
extended to you. This helps in a continuous flow of money to your
company.
Conclusion
We
have been in this business for quite some time and understand it very
well. We can customize a solution according to the needs of your new
company. The application process is very simple and can be completed
in very less time. We can guide and support you and you can also
