CPA Websites Marketing Tips

Brian O'Connell, President

We all agree: you’ve got to get paid for your work. You can’t allow clients to skip out on their bills.

Luckily, our CPA websites have an Online Credit Card option, which means your clients pay their bills right on your site.

You save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars when you take advantage of online credit card processing.

But which credit card processor?  The right choice makes a difference in how much you save.

Which credit card processor you need depends on your monthly usage.

PayPal or Capital Payments?

Our CPA websites offer you a choice of two credit card processors: PayPal or Capital Payments.

Here’s a quick look at the plans:

PayPal =  1 or 2 transactions/month

Capital Payments = 3 or more transactions/month

How to Get the Lowest Fees

To get the lowest credit card fees, follow these steps:

1. Evaluate your needs. Do you have a busy firm with a high percentage of Web-savvy clients – or a smaller firm with a more traditional clientele?

2. If your clients will pay by credit card only once or twice a month, choose PayPal.

3. If you think you’ll process 3 or more credit card payments per month, you want Capital Payments.

Getting Paid On Time, Every Time

Whichever company is right for you, accepting credit card payments online means you get paid on time, every time.

In fact, between paying low processing fees, avoiding bad debt, and saving on collection costs – you save at least $1,000/year.

Both PayPal and Capital Payments accept Visa, MasterCard, and American Express – so your clients enjoy the convenience as well.

Do you ever feel burned by clients who fail to pay? What ways do you deal with this? Post your thoughts in our Reply section.

If you accept credit cards, or even if you are thinking about accepting credit cards, you know how confusing the Merchant Services world is. They use confusing rates, lease payments, statement fees, gateway fees, transaction fees, and fluctuating discount rates to pull the wool over your eyes.

They’ve been doing this for years and they have been getting rich off it.

If you were to find a truly honest credit card processor they would let you know how much  they have to pay Visa, MasterCard and American Express, as well as how much they mark up the fees.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a Merchant Service Provider that believed in clear, completely transparent, cost plus pricing? Someone who shows you their “invoice price” as well as their markup.

Well we found them. Capital Payment Systems has agreed to offer our clients a special “cost plus” price that is guaranteed to be the lowest out there. Don’t take our word for it. Compare this price with what you are currently paying and you’ll quickly see that you’re overpaying.
