			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a leader in providing merchant account solutions, Canada Merchant Accounts (CMA) is the choice of many call center and tech support businesses worldwide. CMA offers the most competitive rates for merchant accounts for Canadian call center and tech support businesses.</p>
<p>Whether you operate a tech support business locally, specifically serving Canadian customers, or run a call center business spanning international borders and serving a global customer base, we can help.</p>
<p align="center">Canadian Merchants <a title="merchant account application" href="https://secure.powerpay.biz/pipeline/applications/app_international.aspx?agentid=3638">APPLY HERE</a></p>
<p>At CMA, we provide a full range of e-commerce merchant account options for IT and tech support businesses in Canada. Even if your business is low volume, you’re just as important to us as our high volume merchants. We’ll set up a customized merchant account solution based on the specific needs of your business.</p>
<p>For businesses that cater to the international market, a CMA solution supports multi-currency, offering the ability to process credit cards from over 130 countries. When a customer pays with an international credit card, the payment is automatically converted and funds deposited as Canadian dollars into your account.</p>
<p>Businesses throughout the World in need of tech support services are realizing the value, expertise and quality of service that Canadian call centers provide, and Canada is rapidly becoming an outsourced hub for these services. Even smaller operations are experiencing exponential growth both locally and internationally.</p>
<p><strong>Why Process Credit Cards</strong></p>
<p>Gone are the days of the antiquated Purchase Order system. Today, major companies, such as Dell, that spend on outsourcing prefer to pay for these large tickets with corporate credit cards. A corporate card simplifies the reporting and accounting procedures and allows the company to reap rewards for money spent.</p>
<p>A CMA merchant account for Canadian tech support provides a level of confidence and security for corporate clients. Your clients will be more likely to pay for high ticket transactions at once, rather than incur frequent installments, paying the credit card balance at their convenience. Credit card processing as opposed to purchase order payments contributes to savings, convenience and overall satisfaction of your clients.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>CMA Stands Above the Rest</strong></p>
<p>With a CMA credit card processing solution for your Canadian tech support or call center business, you can be assured that you are in good hands. We have been in business since 2004 and strive to maintain our level of excellence. With our industry knowledge and global banking relationships, we can provide you with the most competitive rates in the industry.</p>
<p>Simply providing a great solution and earning your business is not enough for us. We want you to continue to be satisfied with your CMA merchant account solution and grow your business as we do over the years.</p>
<p>If you already have a merchant account solution and are shopping for more favorable rates, take advantage of our <strong>FREE RATE ANALYSIS</strong>. Chances are, we can save you as much as 20% on transaction fees.</p>
<p>Email a recent processing statement to sales@thetransactiongroup.net or fax it to 312-896-5628, and we’ll get in touch with you in 1 business day with a customized rate plan that includes your estimated savings.</p>
<p>Get Started Now with a CMA solution!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The days of “cash and carry” businesses are all but over.  If you own a small shop in a tiny town you might still be able to get away with this method of retail, but for most businesses, credit card processing is a must.  If you are among the last holdouts that don’t have a terminal sitting on your counter, it is time to rethink the situation.</p>
<p><strong>Increased Customer Base</strong></p>
<p>Even the most isolated towns are now hooked up to the Internet and interstate grid, which means that people are going to be driving through, even if they aren’t staying.  It would be a real shame to lose a potential customer simply because they don’t carry cash.  By accepting credit cards, you open your business up for more sales and a broader customer base.</p>
<p><strong>Fewer Worries</strong></p>
<p>Out of town checks are a serious risk, so much so that most businesses simply don’t accept checks at all; and that includes local checks.  With credit card processing you can add a check scanning feature that allows you to accept checks and scan them immediately to ensure payment.  This will allow you to accept cash, checks, and charge, a real boon if you want to maximize the number of people you can serve.</p>
<p><strong>Ease of Expansion</strong></p>
<p>When you are ready to move online with your business, and most companies do sooner or later, you can easily transition to a payment gateway that accepts payment from anywhere in the world.  Going online allows you to solicit business from anywhere in the world, with the right software and support.  If you are already set up with a merchant account in your retail location, it is much simpler to expand your business online.</p>
<p><strong>Less Risk of Burglary</strong></p>
<p>The less cash you consistently have on the premises, the lower the risk of armed robbery.  Unfortunately, cash dependent businesses are much more likely to be hit by an armed suspect than those that limit the cash on hand.  When you begin taking plastic, you decrease the amount of money you have in the store, and that means that there is little motivation for picking your premises.</p>
<p>Setting up a Canadian merchant account is an easy way to increase your bottom line, decrease your risks and worries, and it paves your way to virtual expansion.  If you haven’t looked into the possibilities, this is the time to do so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Interac is transitioning to chip — a new generation of payment card technology that will make a safe payment system even more secure.</p>
<p>New debit cards will contain an embedded microchip that will put the power of a computer onto your card. Point-of-sale terminals and Automated Banking Machines (ABM) across the country will also become chip enabled.</p>
<p>Chip cards will have processing functions and will work together with chip capable terminals and ABMs to ensure a highly secure transaction by validating both card and cardholder, providing increased protection against debit card fraud.</p>
<p><strong style="display:none"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></strong></p>
<p>Chip card technology is based on a global standard known as EMV, a proven technology in wide use around the world. Chip technology is virtually impossible to duplicate, increasing consumers&#8217; confidence in the payment system, while decreasing your fraud management costs. Chip technology will provide a platform for new product and service offerings, allowing you to keep pace with your competitors&#8217; card payment technologies.</p>
<p><strong>The same Interac services, combined with all new technology:</strong></p>
<p>Completing a sale with a chip debit card and terminal:</p>
<ul>
<li>Insert the chip card into the chip reader instead of swiping.</li>
<li>The customer&#8217;s card must remain in the reader until the transaction is completed.</li>
<li>Then it&#8217;s business as usual. The customer completes the transaction and payment is accepted.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>The chip transition timeline:</strong></p>
<p>Every payment service provider has its own timetable in place for providing chip terminals. In order to ensure a smooth transition, Interac Association has implemented final conversion deadlines that work within merchants&#8217; normal business cycles, so that merchants will be able to transition to chip within the set timeline and with minimum impact.</p>
<p><span style="display: none; text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Interac chip cards and terminals are already being rolled out across Canada.</li>
<li>Complete migration to chip technology will take several years and the timetable for the introduction of chip will vary from one financial institution, and one service provider to another.</li>
<li>All Automated Banking Machines (ABM), point-of-sale (POS) terminals and banking cards across Canada will be upgraded.</li>
<li>Magnetic stripe debit card transactions will no longer be accepted at ABMs after December 31, 2012.</li>
<li>Magnetic stripe transactions will no longer be accepted at POS after December 31, 2015.</li>
<li>Chip cards will continue to carry the magnetic stripe, not only to facilitate the chip transition period, but also to allow cardholders to use their debit cards in other countries that do not use chip technology.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For many small business owners starting out, making decisions on the financial end of things can be a daunting task. If your passion is to open a flower shop, used bookstore, or small house wares store, chances are you are a creative type of person who might find the “business” side of running your business tedious, needlessly confusing, even intimidating.</p>
<p>All businesses—even the smallest ones—can benefit enormously from providing debit and credit card transaction options, but to do so one needs to set up a merchant account. The process of choosing a merchant account provider can be a complicated one, with many different variables to weigh. For a small business owner without a business background, it’s hard to escape that nagging feeling that you are ill-equipped to ask the right questions when shopping for a merchant account provider—that you might get roped into a less-than-ideal plan or even be ripped off.</p>
<p>Armed with a few simple tips and knowing the right questions to ask prospective merchant account providers, however, you can approach the search with a higher level of confidence and find the best way to minimize your costs and find value and satisfaction in your investment.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Communication.</strong> There is enormous range in the services offered and the fees charged among different merchant account providers. You should feel confident that they are being up-front with you about costs, including “hidden fees.” They should have a reliable, easily accessible customer and technical support line. If you obtain their customer service/technical support number you can test it by calling it at a variety of times throughout the week. Good customer service speaks volumes about the provider’s business as a whole.</li>
<li><strong>Obtain referrals.</strong> <u style="display:none"></u>  <u style="display:none"> <u style="display:none"> <u style="display:none"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></u> </u>
<p style="display:none"><a href="http://film-hunter.com/263574">download Brideshead Revisited</a></p>
<p>  </u>  This is another aspect of good communication between a provider and a potential customer. You should be able to get contact numbers of other companies using the provider. Phone them, and ask questions. What is their response time to customer service calls? Are they put on hold for long stretches when calling for customer/tech support? Are they satisfied with their rates, or have rates been raised unexpectedly? Have they been charged “hidden” fees they had not anticipated or been told about ahead of time?</li>
<li><strong>Have a well-thought-out business plan.</strong> If you’ve received a bank loan to help start your business, you will already have one prepared. A merchant account provider will also need a business profile. Having a sensible estimate of your potential costs and sales can also help a merchant account specialist assess your needs—and is especially important in determining your account limits. It is not commonly known that credit card processors will stop processing a business’ transactions if these transactions exceed the business profile: this is a safeguard against credit card fraud. Make sure your business plan takes into account projected growth, as well as potential increased sales during holiday periods. You don’t want to have credit card processing on hold for several weeks during peak season!</li>
<li><strong>Read the fine print.</strong> No matter how helpful your merchant account specialist is in explaining the terms of your agreement, it is ultimately your responsibility to carefully read your contract and understand what exactly you are being charged. Some merchant account providers will offer low introductory rates, which will be raised after a specific period. Other incentives, such as free equipment or very low basic rates, may be dangled in front of the customer. Remember: if it seems too good to be true, then it probably is! Many providers load a contract with numerous hidden fees—“administration” fees, “system access” fees, monthly maintenance fees, “warranty” fees, and so on—which may seem small on their own but can add up. Another thing to take note of: most providers charge termination costs. What is the penalty for early termination of your contract?</li>
<li><strong>Be honest in your estimates of sales and volume of business.</strong>
<ul style="display:none">

<p style="display:none"> <strong style="display:none"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></strong> </p>
<p> <em style="display:none"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></em>    As mentioned above, your provider will use your business profile to set rates, and if your business dramatically exceeds estimates your provider may freeze your funds as a safeguard against credit card fraud. If you misrepresent your business for the sake of securing lower rates, you may be hit with severe rate increases or even dropped as a client by your provider.</li>
<p> <em style="display:none"></em>  <strong style="display:none"><a href="http://nerealp.co.cc/121.html">голова болит секс</a></strong> </ul>
<p>It may take a little shopping around to find the merchant account provider best suited for your business, but putting in the effort is worth the satisfaction, sense of stability and peace of mind you will have when partnered with a reliable and fair provider.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gift &amp; Loyalty Card Marketing Programs can provide a powerful way for littler companies to compete. US-based Tower Group, a firm that specializes in gift card research, estimated that combined gift card sales would reach $97 billion in 2007.</p>
<p>The fact is, what you get out of a gift and loyalty merchandising program will depend on the effort and commitment you invest. Card Loyalty Marketing Programs can be a powerful way to grow gross revenue and retain customers. Smaller companies can take advantage of these benefits, but they must be ready to implement them creatively and aggressively.</p>
<p>I will help you understand the costs, profitability and psychology of gift and loyalty card marketing programs. I will also outline some creative, real-world examples where smaller companies have used gift and loyalty cards to compete well against larger, chain-store competitors.</p>
<p>The top fifteen reasons why every small business should have its own Custom Gift &amp; Loyalty program.</p>
<ul>
<li>Gift Cards can be easily reloaded&#8230;pay for the cards once and keep putting pre-paid cash in the POS Terminal.</li>
<li>Every time one of your customers purchases a gift card he has given you instant working capital!</li>
<li>A properly designed program provides your shoppers with an incentive to keep coming back.</li>
<li>Studies shows that 12% to 15% of cash spent on gift cards is never redeemed, creating a pure revenue stream for your business. This is called &#8216;Uplift&#8217; in the industry</li>
<li>Average ticket prices on gift card transactions are more&#8230;studies shows that shoppers spend on average, 65% more than the value of their card</li>
<li>Returns or refunds can be done through the issuing a gift card (in-store credit) keeping the money in your register.</li>
<li>Gift and loyalty cards are the number one request amongst consumers today. Prepaid Gift Cards ranked third among the top gifts people want to give this year, trailing only by clothes and books/music/video game.</li>
<li>Offer your shoppers and incentive for buying Gift Cards, Purchase a gift card as a bonus, you are rewarding your customer and acquiring a new loyal shopping fan at the same time.</li>
</ul>
<p> <strong style="display:none"></strong><br />

<p>Many merchants are not mindful that their merchant accounts may have limits and if gross sales happen to have a speedy growth, like during the special holiday season, then the merchant account supplier could stop accepting any new transactions, until the following month, thus costing the merchant sales.</p>
<p>As strange as this may seem, merchant account providers shut down accounts if the total processed amount of money exceeds the business profile, which was set-up up during the initial application process and is commonly only higher thàn what the merchant initially estimated their monthly Credit Cards gross sales volume would be.</p>
<p>This may seem whacky that the Merchant Account Provider would prevent a business from having increased gross sales and growth, but the merchant account supplier is trying to crush any deceitful activity. When a business organization has a spike in gross sales that is much higher then their typical sales profile, it triggers suspicion that will put a freeze on a business merchant account, not allowing them to process credit card transactions till the next month and possibly even holding funds back as a reserve against possible future chargebacks.</p>
<p>All this can cause the business proprietor some serious cash flow problems.</p>
<p>To avert such scenarios happening to your business, you want to make sure you are mindful of your merchant account limits and then make sure they are set high enough to handle sales development and sale spikes cause by Christimas seasons. Finding out what your merchant account limit is should be as easy as making a phone call to your Merchant Account Provider. You can never have too much communication between you and your merchant account provider.</p>
<p>If you have a good merchant account broker then they should be able to help guide you through how to deal with your merchant account limits, merchant account profile, and how to change your profile limits as your business organization grows or has development spurts.<strong style="display:none"></strong>
