FAQ About Online Payment Options and Processing

How can I process credit cards online?

To process credit cards online, you will need to set up a merchant account with a payment processor. Here are the steps you can follow to setup online payment options:

  • Choose a payment processor for your site: It’s essential to choose a partner that fits your business needs and billing requirements.
  • Apply for a merchant payment processing account: Once you have chosen a payment processor, you will need to apply for a merchant account. This process typically involves providing your business information, such as your business name, tax ID number, and banking information.
  • Integrate the payment processor with your website checkout: You will need to integrate the payment processor with your website or online store so that customers can make purchases through your website. This process may involve installing a plugin or integrating an API provided by the payment processor.
  • Go live with your online payments: Once you have completed all the above steps, you can start accepting credit card payments online.

At Seamless Merchant, we specialize in merchant accounts for companies in high-risk products and hard-to-place industries.

These services allow you to process credit cards online with industry-leading encryption and security, which keeps you and your customers safe and prevents issues like fraud, chargebacks, and more.

How much does it cost to accept credit cards online?

The cost of processing credit card payments online can vary depending on several factors, such as the payment processor you choose, the type of online credit card transaction, and the volume of transactions your business processes. Here are some common fees you may encounter with credit card processing online:

  • Transaction fees: This is a fee charged for each transaction you process, which is usually a percentage of the transaction amount (e.g., 2.9%) plus a fixed fee (e.g., $0.30). You may also pay more to accept certain types of credit cards than you would others.
  • Monthly support fees: Some payment processors may charge a monthly fee for using their services, which can range from a few dollars to hundreds of dollars.
  • Chargeback fees: If a customer disputes a charge and initiates a chargeback, the payment processor may charge you a fee for the payments.

It's essential to compare the fees and features of different payment processors to determine which one best suits your business needs and budget. Also, keep in mind that fees can vary depending on the size and type of your business and the volume and types of transactions you process at your store.

Fortunately, you can save money and secure a fair credit card processing rate by shopping around for a merchant services account that actually meets your needs and supports your company.

What is a Payment Gateway vs. a Payment Processor?

While payment processors and payment gateways are two different things, they work together to allow your business to accept payments anywhere and anytime online. Your customers can easily purchase products from their mobile phone at home with the integration of a payments gateway and processor.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the difference between a payments processor and a payments gateway:

  • Payment processors like Seamless Merchant provide the merchant account that actually facilitates the financial transaction for customers.
  • Payment gateways like Plaid and Stripe provide a bridge between financial institutions. They communicate with your bank and your customers’ banks or credit card companies, encrypt and secure sensitive financial data like login and account information, verify payments, then communicate the approval or decline of financial transactions accordingly.

While payment processors provide a space for financial transactions to occur, they don’t move money, which is why you also need to partner with payment gateway services to accept credit cards online. 

That said, many payment processors have pre-existing relationships with payment gateways, so you won’t have to pick and choose your providers. 

Which card types can I accept?

Depending on your merchant account, you should be able to accept all major credit cards, including American Express, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa for contactless payments online.

For more information about the types of cards you can accept with your payment solutions, consult your merchant account partner.

How do I receive a credit card payment online?

To receive a credit card payment online, you will need to set up a payment processing system. 

Here are the steps to follow to enable digital payments:

  • Choose a payments processor: There are many payment processors available to partner with, including Seamless Merchant, Square, and others. Choose one that suits your billing needs and create an account.
  • Integrate with a Payment Gateway: Most payment processors will provide a payment gateway you can integrate into your website or online store. This will allow your customers to enter their payment information and complete the transaction. For example, a merchant account like Seamless Merchant offers more than 25 bank relationships, allowing businesses to accept credit card payments securely, quickly, and efficiently.

Our merchant account services also support returns and chargebacks, so you’ll have all the tools to manage credit card payments online and grow your business through electronic payments. As our client, we'll ensure that your online payments get processed seamlessly.
