The iPad has many features that make it a fun device for reading books, watching movies, and checking email. But the iPad can be more. With the right partner, you can turn your iPad into a mobile device for credit card processing and conducting business. All you need to get started is a merchant services account and the PAYware Mobile application.

PAYware Mobile

PAYware Mobile works on your iPad to allow you to accept debit and credit cards. Open the app and enter your merchant account information, then the details of your sale. Next, enter the card and billing address information. That’s it! Within moments you receive transaction approval – much safer than accepting checks and waiting for them to clear.

You can email a receipt, add sales tax, and add tips all on the iPad. Everything is secure, all data is fully encrypted. Nothing is stored on iPad, so no one has access to sensitive information. PAYware gives you online reporting of all your sales, and if you have several iPads in different locations, you can see all sales results on a single report.

The Merchant Services Account

A merchant services account provider is your business partner in credit transactions. You make the sale, PAYware starts the process, and the merchant account communicates with all banks involved to secure the funding. Because the merchant account has the final say in how you receive payment for your credit sales, be sure to select a partner that offers flexibility, service, and is current on the latest technologies.

Your merchant service partner should offer 24/7 customer service, and provide merchant accounts for all types of card processing, including mobile cell phone and iPad processing. Once you complete a sale, it can take up to three days for the profits to be deposited into your business account. You can cut that time to twenty-four hours by choosing a partner that offers next day funding- this feature is indispensable to the mobile business that needs a quick turn-around on profits, and flexibility in spending practices.

iPad, PAYware Mobile, and your merchant account. Partners in making your business work, your way.
