Business friends who have this system tell us that the cost of this service changes around XNX% of the cost of each product sold (paid by card), both by Visa and Master Card, so you need to consider this one margin in the final sale.
Data :
– The telephone line needed to run the mail may be the same one you often use in your business.
– The cost of the terminals varies with each financial institution, some require a monthly fee plus a percentage for each sale, which is determined by the company’s sales volume. Others only pay a commission on sales and no monthly payment.
– When you contract a POS with a banking institution, they give you an “iron” so that in the event of a system failure, the shops can make their sale manually, as well as all the necessary paperwork.
