I have a customer that wants Zen Cart installed and set up on their website. I also would need to set up their merchant account, which they have already set up through their bank.
How much should I charge?

please answer this if you have personal experience, and or you are a Merchant Marine!..

Do you get paid hourly? If you are on the vessel for 4 straight months are you getting paid hourly 24 hours a day for 4 months? do you get a check when you get off the boat or do you get paid directly into an a bank account?

Im in Indianapolis and I want to start an upscale hip hop sneaker/clothing boutique. Does anybody have an idea of how much this will cost and how I set up merchant accounts with a shoe or clothing company and also how to find these companies contact numbers. I know a lot about the culture and lifestyle and I think it would do very well the first one like this opened up a month ago and is doing great. Im thinking it will probably take about $20,000.

When I took accounting, we learned that credit card companies don’t reimburse merchants for the entire purchase price. Instead, they short the merchant a small cut that they keep for processing the transaction. In my classes, we used 2% for all cards.

But that was many years ago and in academia. In the real world right now, what is the merchant discount for the various credit cards (Visa, Master Card, AMEX, Discover)?

Thanks!

Where is a good place to establish such an account? Thanks.

My gym is claiming I owe them $45 because they tried to charge my credit card 3 times, and it was denied each time, costing them $15 / pop.

I’m not sure why the charge was denied all three times. They say it came back as ‘miscellaneous’, so they just kept on trying to charge it. Each time incurring a $15 Charge.

I had sufficient funds, and my account was in good standing.

Also this was an EFT payment if that makes a difference.

I signed up for a merchant account to accept credit cards for my new in-home business but my husband said that I probably made a big mistake cause they charge you a lot. I really didn’t see much writen about fees but he says there are probably tons of hidden ones, now I’m worried. It anyone in here has a merchant account could you give me a little more insight to them.

I am just beginning a website and want to accept credit cards. How much will a merchant account cost? Where is a good place to establish such an account? Thanks.
Need a ballpark figure.

I don’t know very much about merchant account, but I’m a retailer and do business selling products online. Which merchant account do you recommend, how much is the monthly fee and which do you recommend in addition?
