JanetsCandles Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I'm curious as to what you guys think of various processing groups. I'm in a "small business" type situation still. Work from my home, wholesale a lot, do craft fairs. So far it hasn't been an issue, but I'm wanting to potentially get working on getting credit card processing that I can take to fairs. I'm also possibly setting up a storefront, so will be looking for a POS terminal as well. Trying to get an idea of options, and frankly I'm not overly trusting of just what I see on the websites of various merchant services groups. So, do you guys use any CC processing? Are they good for you? People you don't like, they're shady, shifty, problematic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B@BlissStreet Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 We use and LOVE the Square Up processing system. There are numerous threads on this company; generally positive. It allows you to swipe or manually process from a smart phone/android. Payment is deposited nightly, fees are minimal. HTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jluper7297 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 My dad owns a heating & air business and he uses go payment. He's happy with it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursenancy Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I use Square on my droid and I am totally happy with it. I highly recommend it. Very convenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnaSS Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I use Intuit for my storefront and Go Payment for shows/fairs etc. Plus, because I have a merch acct w/Intuit it doesn't cost me anything for the Go Pymt & I pay extremely low fees. I didn't like their swiper though, so I picked up a Mophie swiper for my phone & really love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandgirl Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Don't use Thompson Merchant ServicesJust in case you did a search on here. When the company was small and first starting out, Joe the owner was very helpful. But as the company grew..The Customer Service got worse!!Joe will never return a phone call and it takes for ever for him to answer emails!!!(Unless you want to upgrade or open an account.. Then Bam.. He will call you right back. LOL) But once he hooks you.. Forget it.. You are on your own. I had billing issues, incorrect charges, and broken equipment sent to me. It was a nightmare trying to get a hold of this man. He cost me a lot of time and money.So I quit using him and it was the best decision I ever made.Their rates may be good, but the customer service is the worst!! RUN AWAY from this company!!!:tiptoe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
