Over the last decade, the number and volume of online sales have been increasing on a regular basis. People would rather browse and shop online to buy many types of items, ranging from clothing and pet food to furniture and groceries. This has left merchants needing a reliable e-commerce merchant account provider with good rates and services.
Instead of having to drive to a store, find a parking space, and then wander through the store to find what they need, followed by standing in a checkout line before having to load the car and drive home, e-commerce retailers ship everything to your front door, making shopping so much more convenient.
While online retailers make our lives easier, unfortunately, for them, being able to process and accept credit and debit payments requires finding a high-risk e-commerce merchant account provider. For tried and true retailers, which started with a brick and mortar store and then added online sales, it is not as difficult because these have an established history with a provider.
Why Is It Difficult to Find E-Commerce Merchant Account Providers?
For a small “mom and pop” operation that is starting a strictly online-only business, things can be much more difficult. They will shop around from one provider to another, to eventually find one with fees and rates they may not like, but they will have no choice if they want to take credit and debit payments and ACH payments.
Over the past several years, many merchant account providers are changing the way they do business and reducing potential risks. Part of this is do with fluctuations in the economy. When things are going well, some providers are willing to take higher risks and, when the economy enters a downswing, they start reducing the number of risks they will take.
- New Account Set Up Fee
- Equipment Fee
- New Merchant Gateway Fee
