Does anyone know of or use a good online, web-based credit card terminal?
I DON’T WANT TO ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS THROUGH MY WEBSITE. I just want to dump my terminal on my land line and switch to a web based service. I have seen them used before, and many looked nice, I just can’t seem to track any down. Looking for something like this:
Ideally something without monthly minimums, monthly fees, etc.
Ideally something that can take advantage of Android.
Ideally something that would allow a small card reader to be integrated into it for a lower swipe rate.
I have been researching different payment systems and I’ve decided to use Paypal in the meantime. I have to other recommendations ClickBank because I will be setting up reoccuring payments for my clients. I also will try http://paysimple.com/. The only thing is they all have fees tied to them. I use Paypal app for Iphone as well.
I have a couple clients that are trying out Square for their credit card processing. They offer an iPad, iPhone or Android card reader for swiping and manual entry (at a higher rate of course) but they claim no monthly fees or hidden costs. They just signed up for it, so no results back yet, but looks pretty nice.
I recommend http://www.merchantplus.com to all of my clients and I’ve never heard a complaint. I know you don’t want a web API but theirs is very good. Alternatively they’ve got a great web portal to run CC transactions like you described.
