Merchant Services for Corner Stores

With a sluggish economy leaving less disposable spending cash in the pockets of consumers, many small businesses have suffered in recent years. Corner stores in urban areas have been hit particularly hard, as their target customer is one most likely to be affected by the economy. Most of these stores cut costs and save money on expenses by reducing overhead. Going with a low-cost merchant account is one of the best ways to save funds in a tough economy.

The Challenge of Small Merchants

With increasing numbers of people using plastic for their purchases, merchants scramble to set up their businesses to accept credit and debit cards. The problem is that this increase in card usage has struck at the same time that merchants have seen a drop in sales due to the sluggish economy. As a solution, many merchants impose surcharges on customers who use plastic or set minimum purchase requirements. This has been known to anger customers who resent being “dinged” for paying with plastic.
