As we face these uncertain times in the worldwide financial markets, it seems that Ecommerce Sales may be resilient, even if we face a economic downturn and potentiel recession in the United States. According to a recent article in Barron’s, Jeff Lindsey reports that dispite a slowing economy, he forecasts Ecommerce Transactions to grow 14.3% in the US in 2008.

Online merchants should also benefit from the rising cost of fuel, as many customers would prefer saving the time & gasoline expense of traveling to make a purchase. Ecommerce merchants offering Free Shipping will really make it a “No Brainer” for the consumer looking to save money.

Today is one of the best times in history to apply for a merchant account to accept credit cards at your business. You will find free credit card terminals being offered by many offices in return for your business. Credit card processing has become a must for most businesses and the competition between providers is fierce. This competition in my opinion is the result of the internet, with business owners being more educated by searching for the best deal on credit card processing.

Free equipment like; free credit card machine, free credit card software, and free ecommerce solutions are slowly becomming the norm on the internet. This competition was sparked a couple of years ago and may continue for the near future. No one know when they will “Pull The Plug” on free equipment, but for now it is available and everyone should take advantage of it.

If you are thinking about setting up credit card processing for your business or are thinking about switching your provider, for a much better rate, please give me a call to discuss your needs. We offer free equipment on all new merchant accounts for credit card processing.

Ecommerce webmaster’s need an internet merchant account to process credit card transactions from their website. Internet merchant accounts coupled with an ecommerce gateway provide the perfect secure transaction platform for any website. Customers can make credit card purchases via a shopping cart checkout or simply a buy-it-now button.

An internet merchant account shows your customers that you are for real. Other alternatives such as PayPal may turn-off a customer, causing them to change their mind and keep looking on other websites.
Another advantage is that your funds are depostied directly into your business account. Third-Party solutions require you to wait for your funds and make a transfer request.

If you have any questions, please give me a call to discuss your ecommerce merchant account needs.
