Card Processing Costs

Card Processing Costs

Today I want to talk to you about card processing costs. It’s one of the costs we can look at in a business. It’s quite complicated, it can be quite time consuming to find all these different people.

One of the biggest mistakes we find is that people don’t sign up for the PCI compliance. So straight away they’re roughly throwing away £10 a month. It’s a typical cost of £9.99 a month.

 

What is PCI?

It’s the basic data protection that the card processing industry insists on.

You could do this online, it’s a series of questions about how you look after data so that you don’t get the trouble and the bad publicity going down the line where you’ve had a data breach when people have stolen your customers details.

So I urge you that if you haven’t filled in PCI forms, please do it.

If you look at your monthly bill from your card processing company, you will see it will be there, it will be a non compliance cost. Usually the one I see is £9.99. I have heard it is higher.

 

We are able to look at a broad range of providers.

We don’t charge for this service, it’s just something we do because you haven’t got the time to be doing it.

You will be out the front, you might be a chef, a manager, you might be best behind a bar, you might be best putting your business forward promoting it, but what you you haven’t got the time is to do all this looking around digging around speaking to providers to get the best price. All we need will be a typical months bill, then we can look at it and try and get you the best price we can.

But if nothing else, please make sure you are PCI compliant and you’ve filled it out because that will save you at least £120 a year.
