The World Wide Web - 01/10/10 - USBSwiper.com is pleased to announce the dawn of the new age in wireless credit card processing. In the past, if one was away from the office and had to process a credit card transaction, one had to either take the credit card information and save it for data entry at later time or one had to use a system such as the PayPal virtual terminal that required typing in the credit card number and expiration date. However, such systems often left an individual's credit card information vulnerable to identity thieves. Enter the USB swiper.
Today, merchants can take their laptops or other wireless computers with wireless Internet access anywhere and conduct business, accepting credit cards just as if they were in a regular store. All that is needed is the USB swiper device, Internet access, and to have an account with either PayPal payments Pro or a Payflow merchant gateway, also available from PayPal. This eliminates the need to type in credit card information or to hold it until a later time for entry into the system.
Transactions are handled in real time and the merchant knows if a credit card is denied or excepted before the customer walks away. If a printer is available, the system can also print an invoice for the customer showing what was purchased, the purchase price, any taxes paid, and the total amount spent.
To summarize, programmers working with PayPal have created a system that allows merchants to swipe credit cards anywhere they have access to a computer and the Internet, even if they're out in the middle of nowhere. USBSwiper.com has broken new ground by offering the swiper device and helping to set up the proper payment accounts with PayPal to process credit cards.
