Why Should I Setup A Payment Processor To Accept Credit Cards?

Accepting credit cards as a payment option for businesses is essential for growth in today's ever-changing environment. Credit card payments are the preferred payment method over more conventional ones such as invoicing a customer or even cash payments. In a 2020 study by the Federal Reserve, 27% of consumers opted to pay via a credit card with that percentage continually on the rise. 

Payment processing for both credit cards and invoicing has pros and cons. While we won't go into great detail about invoicing customers within this article, it's important to understand some of the pros and cons of each to better help you determine what is best for your business's needs.

Pros of Credit Card Payments Cons of Credit Card Payments
  • Access to funds sooner
  • The display of credit card logos helps increase a business's legitimacy
  • Boost sales with buyer access to greater capital/purchasing power
  • Level playing field with competitors
  • Avoid bounced checks or customers forgetting to pay invoices
  • Avoid delinquent buyers or buyers that refuse to pay for products and/or services
  • Avoid charge disputes as manual invoicing tends to be prone to more errors than credit processing
  • Avoid invoices getting lost in the mail and fees related to mailing invoices
  • More environmentally friendly
  • Credit card fees (fees vary depending upon the credit card company)
  • No grace period on payments
  • Chargebacks/fraud/credit card theft

When you accept credit card payments on junipermarket.com, the credit card logos are automatically added to your brand's page. What does it look like? Great question...⬇

Regardless of which payment processor you select, there are a few settings that should be enabled/considered.

  1. Toggle on "Credit Card Payments" - this setting is necessary to complete steps 2-3 below.
  2. Tick the credit cards that your company accepts. Credit cards left unchecked will not be accepted.
  3. Optional: Tick "Accept Payments Only From Country"
    • Enabling this feature will limit credit card payments to the selected countries. If left unchecked, you will be able to accept credit cards from ALL countries.
    • Your payment processor may permit/prohibit additional settings to allow or restrict additional countries.

About Payment Profiles

Within the Payment Profiles section, you can review payment profiles on file. Head over to WebManager > Accept Payments > Payment Profiles to review. Note: No information will be visible until payment profiles have been created and some information is restricted for the security of information and to adhere to PCI Compliance.

In this section, you'll be able to edit credit card details such as expiration month and year as well as the CVV2 number. You can also search for a customer's credit card on file and/or delete credit cards on file.
