Until recently the payment options available for mobile merchants were limited to cash, check or the manual imprinter (the knuckle buster that takes an imprint of the credit card to key in the information later). New technology has allowed the mobile merchant to accept credit cards in the same manner as retail storefronts.

This new technology has allowed the mobile merchants to throw out the manual imprinter with the associated risk of taking bad credit cards as well as eliminating the need to accept checks or handle cash. Not only does wireless credit card processing reduce risk and increase sales, as a bonus, by swiping the credit card instead of using a manual imprinter you will get the lowest rates available on all card types.

 

Total Merchant Services has a complete line of wireless credit card terminals as well as other effective methods of credit card processing for mobile merchants. Whether you do trade shows, taxi services, home parties or contract labor, Total Merchant Services has a wireless credit card processing and merchant account solution for your business.
