What is merchant processing?
A merchant processing arrangement lets an eligible business accept electronic card payments through an acquiring and processing relationship. The complete setup can include a merchant account, payment gateway, POS or terminal, settlement reporting and support for disputes. The best configuration depends on whether your customers pay at the counter, tableside, by invoice or online.
Compare the full cost, not only a headline percentage
Ask every provider for an itemized proposal showing transaction pricing, monthly fees, equipment charges, software subscriptions, gateway costs, PCI-related charges, refunds and chargeback handling. Comparing the same card volume and transaction types across offers helps you evaluate the total cost of ownership. Read our merchant processing fees guide for practical statement-review questions.
How EZ Payment can help you evaluate options
We can discuss your industry, average ticket, monthly payment volume, current equipment, online ordering needs and preferred settlement experience. Eligible businesses can explore available processing arrangements and ask detailed questions before committing. Processing approval, pricing and settlement schedules are determined by the actual provider and underwriting.
Specialty businesses and honest underwriting
Some industries require enhanced review. Businesses should describe their products, customers, fulfillment and sales claims accurately, rather than trying to route transactions through an unrelated category. For eligible research-use-only suppliers, see our separate research peptide merchant processing page.
Common questions
What information should I bring to a processing consultation?
Your business type, approximate monthly card sales, average sale amount, online versus in-person mix and a recent processing statement with sensitive customer information removed.
Can I keep my existing payment hardware?
Possibly. Compatibility varies by device, software platform and processor. We can help identify questions to ask before replacing equipment.
Do you guarantee a specific processing rate or approval?
No. Pricing, eligibility and underwriting depend on the processor, actual business activity and written merchant agreement.
