NON-PROFIT BUSINESS ECIG MERCHANT ACCOUNTS
There are many merchant account
providers in the market and each of them
will have some unique features that
should be tapped by potential customers.
All that a customer has to do is search
for features and rates that are
important for the type of business he
owns so that he is satisfied by the
merchant account in the long run and
does face the situation wherein he has
to switch account providers since the
previous account provider did not meet
his expectations or certain rates were
not clear while opening the account.
Many not for profit organizations are
eligible for discounted rates and these
are tied to many of their business
services. But, the point to be noted
here is that most merchant account
providers do not extend special benefits
to these non-profit firms. It is left to
how much bargaining skills the
non-profit organizations can apply to
extract maximum benefit from the account
providers. Only then can they expect to
gain by reduced rates and fee.
As a general practice, account providers
implement rates, fees and mark ups after
exercising some of their control in it.
Thus, there are chances for giving
preference to non-profit firms and
reducing rates for them. If the account
provider decides in favour of these
non-profit establishments and
irrespective of the stand taken by the
competitors, all the account provider
needs is proof for the non-profit nature
and this document can be easily
furnished by the organisations.
For this, first the non-profit firms
should spend some time for research.
During this time, they should collect
the different rates, charges and fee
that are associated with the account and
judge the account provider who is close
to their requirement. This prior
understanding is definitely required
since all account providers may not be
too willing to reduce rates, given the
stiff competition. For this purpose,
make use of free online quotes that are
easy to obtain. The response is quick
and a lot of time and money gets saved.
Since all account providers have their
own websites and since most applications
are also submitted online, this should
be easy. Another valid point here is
that the non-profit firm gets the
opportunity to specify its status while
submitting requests for quotes.
Another action that can be taken by the
non-profit firms is trying to get
account providers communicate with them.
Such account providers may be those who
have worked with non-profit firms
before. They may even know the
requirements of non-profit firms in the
merchant accounts. If the account
providers are not aware of the needs of
non-profit establishments, it is the
responsibility of the non-profit firm’s
personnel to explain the needs well in
advance so that the account providers
know whether they can cater to the needs
of the customer.
Thus, it is definitely possible to find
merchant account providers who can
strike a good deal with non-profit
firms. This requires minimal effort
these days due to the internet search
engines. Contact
