A merchant account is a special kind of bank account that allows you to take credit card payments. Money transfers from your customer's credit card into your merchant account, which usually takes two business days. Then the money transfers from the merchant account into your bank account on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Setting up a merchant account has huge advantages for any Waste management business.
6 Benefits of Using a Merchant Account With AMS
-
A study by Community Merchants USA found that 83% of small businesses that start accepting credit cards see a resulting increase in sales. The fact is customers like having the choice of paying with credit cards. When given more payment options, they're more likely to buy.
-
As a busy Waste Management Provider, you're likely to have customers from both near and far. Without credit card processing, your more distant customers are left with limited payment options. They can make a bank transfer, mail a check, or travel to pay you in cash.
Payment processing with a merchant account allows for a quick and easy credit card payment instead. The process is usually automated, making for faster, smoother onboarding of new customers. There's also less chance of a customer getting cold feet and choosing a different contractor at the last minute.
-
For long-term Waste Management contracts, you'll often have to collect recurring monthly payments. Merchant accounts allow for automated monthly recurring payments, taking the hassle out of the process. This reduces the chance of a customer forgetting one month and the need for you to pester them.
-
When dealing with sizable Waste Managment contracts, customers usually prefer to receive an invoice before paying. Merchant Account services allow you to easily write up and send invoices via email.
The customer can pay just as swiftly through the payment gateway's interface. The entire process is sped up nicely, and your business presents a more professional, organized image.
-
The entire cash flow process is streamlined when you accept credit cards and bring your payments and finances online. Reliable electronic programs keep track of your figures digitally, making bookkeeping, cash flow management, and forecasting simpler and clearer. Many business owners find that they understand the finances of their business much better when they bring things into the digital world.
-
No one enjoys the headache and awkwardness of discovering that a check has bounced and asking the customer about it. With a merchant account, you can say goodbye to checks forever if you choose.
For all these reasons, merchant accounts are a must for modern waste management businesses.
