What is a Merchant account?
Merchant accounts are card payment accounts set up by merchant banks (not to be confused with checking/saving or your business bank account). These accounts are used to receive your card payments; whether online, over the phone or by payment card machine.
Why do I need one?
Your merchant account is essential. It checks the customer’s card details are correct and that they have enough money to make the payment. The money is transferred to your merchant account and then onto your business/personal bank account.

At Take Payments, opening a merchant account is free of charge. Never Pay Setup free neither. We only take a small percentage of your card transactions above cost e.g 0.40% and/or $0.05 cents so you never pay more than you can afford.

What is PCI DSS?
PCI DSS is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard: a set of 12 of requirements for the card payments industry. These requirements and best practices are overseen by the PCI Security Standards Council, whose members include American Express, Mastercard, and VISA.
Notes

- If you have multiple storefronts, you can use the same merchant account and receive a single monthly statement for your card payments. If you have different businesses with different owners, we can set you up with separate accounts and help you keep track of your transactions.
- When you take a card payment, money is transferred to your merchant account, then onto your business bank account where you can access it.
- Do ask about our Free POS Machine Program.
