A Merchant Account can help any business with accepting  all major credit cards, ATM/debit cards, reduce fraud and monitor their accounts conveniently online 24/7. Accepting credit, debit cards and checks help businesses increase their sales along with stimulating the customer's impulse buying.

• Accepting bankcards—such as MasterCard and Visa—encourages consumer purchasing and stimulates customer impulse buying, which can help you grow your business. Non cash purchase payments are an important option for both traditional and Internet businesses.
  In association with MasterCard and Visa, Cardservice is licensed to perform various duties on behalf of our member banks, including accepting merchant drafts, using agents and sales representatives to market our products and services, and providing outstanding customer service to merchants.
   ATM/debit cards provide merchants with an additional way to accept non cash payments from their customers and capture impulse purchases. ATM/debit cards stimulate buying and are particularly useful for customers who do not have credit cards and would otherwise have to pay by check or not purchase at all.
   Non cash payment options are a must for today’s businesses, and bankcards are the most popular cards for customer purchases.
  Ask about the Institutional Merchant Account programs available to Banks, Credit Unions and businesses.
  Information about the MasterCard and Visa rules and regulations are available in the Cardservice International Merchant Agreement.

  Purchasing Cards More companies today control corporate purchases by placing purchasing cards in the hands of their employees. Increase customer loyalty and achieve preferred supplier status by offering processing capabilities specifically tailored to corporate needs. Purchasing card acceptance provides value-added service.
  Purchasing cards are an effective business-to-business (B2B) solution that help corporations reduce the administrative costs associated with authorizing, tracking, paying and reconciling small purchases, while maintaining control over their company's purchasing process.
  Merchants that accept purchasing cards and enjoy preferred vendor status attract the thousands of American businesses that process more than $300 billion of business-to-business purchasing transactions. Accepting purchasing cards allows you to capitalize on this growing B2B opportunity and encourage corporate customers to patronize your business.
  Cardservice offers three purchasing card payment solutions that enable suppliers to accept all major purchasing cards from their buyers. Merchant suppliers also benefit from Cardservice International's 24/7 customer support.

  Fraud Protection State-of-the-art online payment gateways, such as the LinkPoint® Secure Payment Gateway, enable merchants to process transactions securely over the Internet, which merchants need to access today's extensive global e-commerce marketplace. Secure  gateways and sophisticated encryption technology make credit card fraud increasingly difficult.
  Fraud-prevention services and features, such as Address Verification Service (AVS), help verify street numbers before the merchandise is shipped. CVC2 (MasterCard) and CVV2 (Visa) are new card verification and validation methods designed to minimize Internet and mail order/telephone order fraud. These methods allow greater security when merchants process transactions where the customer's credit card is not present, and they are some of the security measures available that can help you prevent fraudulent credit card purchases and save your business money.

  Loss Prevention Cardservice  addresses the key issues of both traditional and Internet merchants, including fraud, loss prevention and charge backs.
  The company's state-of-the-art security measures—including its LinkPoint Secure Payment Gateway, which uses encryption and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology—protect all merchant and payment information.
