Believe it or not some business still don’t take credit cards. I ran into one yesterday and was reminded of a speech one of my classmates did last week. Her restaurant does not accept credit cards and they are always turning people away. This is the same thing that happened to me yesterday luckily it was a store so I just left and went somewhere else. Needly to say it’s a store I won’t be going into again as I hardly ever have cash.

It’s actually an easy process to accept credit cards. You just have to subscribe to a service. You get a machine that will read them and your good to go. The company does everything for you. They take out the fees, and send the rest on to you once they get paid. It depends on the credit card company though some will not pay you until the customer pays them.

I know how easy it is to take credit cards, I did it when I sold Avon. I used one of the old manual ones though, at least until I was sent forms for them to fill out instead. I usually encouraged them to just shop online with my website, that way they didn’t worry about me stilling there information. I wouldn’t but I don’t trust many people, so I don’t expect many to trust me.
