Why Do Other Credit Card Processors Lock You in Contract Jail?

Why do most companies lock you in contract jail? It’s simple: 1. When signing a contract, you are stuck with them for the length of the contract and they do NOT have to tellyou when they raise your rates. A contract does NOT guarantee your rates will remain the same as at signing.  2. There are cancellation and termination fees. These can range from a flat fee of $250-$22,000 (yes, you read that correct)! Sometimes the termination fee is the percentage of profit they think they would have made had you stayed the length of your contract. This can be a ton of money! 3. Overtime, they know you might want to get out of your contract and they don’t want you to do that! Hence #2…   Why Pay… Read More.

Merchant BEWARE! Cash Discount Programs are quickly becoming ILLEGAL!

A cash discount program is a way for merchants to pass the cost of card acceptance along to cardholders. The merchant will raise all of their prices via simple signage in their location, and then offer a discount to customers paying with cash. Pay it Forward Processing does not endorse cash discount programs and here is why: Eleven states are getting wise and making it illegal to participate in cash discount programs. California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Oklahoma and Texas—and Puerto Rico have laws that prohibit merchants from charging consumers with surcharges on credit card transactions. Minnesota prohibits a seller of goods or services that establishes and is responsible for its own customer credit card from imposing a surcharge on a purchaser who elects to use that credit… Read More.

Five Things to watch out for with your current credit card processor

1. Dishonesty Have you been promised a certain processing rate yet when receiving your statement; they are higher than you were promised? Also, additional fee’s you weren’t aware of. Most credit card processing companies focus and sell you on a low rate without explaining what will happen after a transaction. These extra hidden fees can sometimes be in the range of $50-$100 monthly and even more. 2. Bait and Switch Your current processor may lower your rates on the signing or when asked to explain or compare rates, but do not have to notify you when they raise your rates again which usually happens shortly after lowering. 3. No Customer Support Do you have a consistent and supportive relationship with the agent you signed up with? Probably not. It is… Read More.
