When we opened our pet supply business a couple of years ago we made a mistake and went with a well known merchant service company. It would take days or even longer for our funds to become available. We were also paying a high monthly fee. When our contract ran out we went with Merchant Industry and life has been easier. They provided us with a free terminal and not only do we not wait forever for available funds, but we have a cash advance option if we should need it. I only wish we had made this choice originally.

We opened a lighting warehouse several years ago and our cash and carry policy worked well. We had cheap prices and advertised low overhead as our reason. As the years went by and money got tighter we were losing sales because people did not carry as much cash as a means of self control and tighter budgets. We got in touch with Merchant Industry and had them finally set us up with a free terminal and a credit card processing system. In this economy we must take credit cards, and with our sales today compared to before Merchant Industry helped us prove that fact.
