If you want to process credit cards online, you re going to need
a credit card clearing service. Here's how to find the right one
for your business. Credit card processing orders online is a
complicated process. First, you need a secureserver and some
form of shopping cart software to accept customers credit card
processing information. Next, you need an Internet merchant
account with a bank that can accept charges from your Web site
and credit them to your account.But simply having a merchant
account doesn't mean that you are set up to take orders online.
Just as in the physical world of retailing, virtual retailing
also requires amiddleman to help the flow of commerce, so you
also need a credit card clearing service. A clearing service
takes the credit card processing information from your site and
transfers the information to your bank, much the same as the
credit card 'swipe terminal' in a physical store. It's not
something a bank automatically takes care of for you. Ideally,
you should find a clearing service at the same time you are
looking for a bank to handle your Internet merchant credit
account. The bank will ask you which clearing service you will
be using, and the servicewill need to know which bank has given
you a merchant account. For this first,find out which bank does
business, and then start the process with anappropriate bank.
This can take from as little as a week to as long as a month. If
a merchant collects all the necessary financial information for
the Internet merchant account and submits it to the bank up
front,this will spped the process along.
