Traditional
Merchant Accounts
Until just
a few years ago, it was very difficult to get a traditional
merchant account unless you had a physical storefront. Now,
however, most merchant banks offer accounts that allow payment
to be taken over the Internet as well, and the most progressive
companies are actively working to accommodate Internet-based
businesses as they see an increasing trend toward online consumer
purchases.
How we Rated Them
It is very
difficult to rate merchant services, because so often whether
a merchant account is "good" for you depends on
your type of business, the risks involved, your credit history,
and the type and volume of products or services you sell.
Also, the line between a merchant account provider and a payment
gateway is often very thin or nonexistent. For that reason,
we have chosen to give the best ratings to the companies that
we feel have been the most progressive
in regards to the Internet, and those that gear their service
and pricing towards Internet-based commerce. |
