Debit card use is skyrocketing as more customers are discovering
their convenience and more merchants are discovering the potential
savings over alternative payment methods. Flexibility, security and
convenience are crucial in payment processing, and debit cards are
no exception. Give your customers the ability to use debit cards and
you gain the benefit of a payment option that offers simplicity and
a high level of security. When a debit card is issued, the account
holder must select his or her own Personal Identification Number
(PIN) that must be used when the card is processed. Entering a PIN
ensures that all of the transactions you accept are highly secured.
Signatures or ID are not required when accepting debit cards, as the
PIN is the Identification. With direct access to all of the major
debit networks, Cynergy Data makes it easy to accept debit and ATM
cards regardless of your location.
We all know that a
DEBIT CARD is the card that we receive when we open a Bank Account.
In the beginning, it was only used to get cash from an ATM Machine.
Today, people are using the Debit Card to make daily purchases
instead of writing a check or paying by cash. Accepting the Debit
Card has become a MUST for every merchant whom wants to increase
sales.
By accepting a
Debit Card, there is also the added advantage of NO discount rate
being involved. The only cost to the merchant is the transaction
fee. The only additional equipment required to enable acceptance of
a Debit Card is the Pin Pad.
