#8706 - 01/18/06 10:56 AM Do you take credit cards?
meredithbead The Divine Ms M Registered: 07/07/03 Posts: 4894 Loc: Orange County, California	I've taken credit cards for my business since 1996 using Retriever Systems. They're $18 a month + %, + per fees. They're raising the rate to $43/month which means I need to find a new credit card processing company ASAP. $43 is untenable for a small business like mine. I've tried talking to Retriever, and the bottom line is, they don't give a crap about whether they keep my business or not. Are you a SMALL business with relatively low credit card volume? -- and if so, what credit card company do you use? All information would be greatly appreciated. PM me if you prefer.

Patty Gale Member Registered: 02/01/06 Posts: 25 Loc: near Milwaukee, WI	I use Authorize.net They are $20 per month plus a %, but it's been one of the least expensive merchant processors out there. Their main site is http://www.Authorize.net I don't know if you can sign up right from there, but there is a phone # that you can call and ask for direction. Hope that helps! Patty

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	No, but I probably need to soon. But I'd hate paying a monthly fee PLUS a % of sales. I'll be doing a large show soon so I need to get my butt moving I suppose.
