Question

What are some benefits & advantages to small business' by accepting credit cards?

Answer 1

I work for a prossessing company, so in my option it would be access to a larger customer base that might not have the cash, also depending on your average ticket you might do well to take debit cards seeing that you pay a much smaller prossessing fee.

Answer 2

I agree with the answer above. Keep in mind there's a fee (I'm thinking approx 2 to 3%) that will be charged by Master Card, Visa etc. If you're bringing in more business due to the fact that you accept credit cards then that little fee is worth it.
