Accept Credit Cards - Merchant Services

POS Nation strives to offer the best resources available to build your business make your bottom line profitable. Because of our large presence in the Point of Sale market, we are usually contacted by one to two merchant services companies per week who would like offer their services to our customers. As usually occurs, one company has stood out far above above any others. Mercury Payment Systems has taken credit card processing to a whole new level by adding so much value that other companies fail in comparison. In fact we have been so impressed that they have inspired us to model some of our business practices around the way they do business. It is in light of that inspiration, that we have chosen to recommend them to our customers and contacts. Below we have listed a number of features that set them apart.

In a recent case, a POS Nation customer was saved a lot of trouble with their bank by this service. The had forgotten to batch out their credit cards with their brand new POS System, and POS Nation Tech Support was alerted that their was an irregularity in the customer's batch history. POS Nation Tech Support promptly contacted the customer and reminded them to batch. Without this service, the customer would have overdrawn their account!
