A Review of a Money-Saving Transaction Solution for Merchants

Jan. 19, 2008 - PRLog -- Mr. Hudkins stated authoritatively “The fact of the matter is: Most small businesses are paying a much higher rate in credit card processing fees than they could get with a new Merchant Service. In fact, there are tens of thousands of businesses across the United States who set up their merchant account years ago. In the meantime, rates have gotten much lower...and that's where this Merchant Service comes in he’d like people to know about by visiting his site at http://www.adultwishfoundations.com/credit.html .”

He initially stated, “There is a new merchant service designed as a complete, money-saving transaction solution for merchants, the Merchant Services you need to know about has been designed with convenience and security in mind. Services include credit card processing, debit card processing, bad check recovery, check verification, gift cards, and more. Even better, this Merchant Service provides business owners with a state-of-the-art credit card terminal, check reader, and signature pad (total value of $1,000) totally FREE, fully programmed, and ready to go, right out of the box! This Merchant Service also makes it super easy for the business to switch and offers a 24/7 toll-free customer service.”

Mr. Hudkins advised, “This new Merchant Service provides merchants with a free Lipman IP Enabled Nurit 8320 credit card terminal (valued at $700). In my opinion the Nurit 8320 is the flagship of the Nurit family of terminals and is an all-in-one payment device, supporting all major credit cards and a range of functions on one secure multi-application platform. It contains a built-in printer and pin pad and is the preferred terminal for small- to medium-sized businesses. Other free equipment includes an eN Check 2500 Check Reader (a $250 value), and a Signature Capture Pad (a $100 value). These solutions enable merchants to accept a variety of payment methods and lower processing fees.”

He emphasized by stating,  “Terminals are also available for businesses that are mobile. This equipment operates within WAY System's SecureNet environment, and is simple to use. The merchant simply enters payment card transactions. The data is then encrypted and transmitted securely over a secure network to a SecureNet server and a Mobile Transaction server, with maintains a secure communication channel for the bank or third party payment processing system and the terminal and transfers transactions to the payment processing system for final authorization. In case of poor network coverage or other network disruptions, the merchant can input transactions in offline mode and then upload the data when coverage and server access is restored.”

He wanted everyone to know, “The suite of Merchant Services available through this payment processing service is for major credit cards, Diners Club, JCB, ATM, debit cards, EBT state and government cards, and electronic gift and loyalty cards, as well as a variety of private label and smart card technologies. BBS caters to all avenues of commerce and contracts with payment process providers working in retail stores, restaurants, mail order and telephone order, e-commerce, Internet, home-based, petroleum, supermarket, and lodging merchants.”
