Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Time for another update on the forums, financial and otherwise. 7%+ for processing fees? Holy cow, man, you're getting ROBBED. I don't know who you're using for payment processing, but there's no reason you should be paying more than 3%. Many processors don't even charge a percentage and just charge 25 cents per credit card transaction. Your processing fees are double what they should be.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:It could be better certainly but it's never that good - often it's "interchange + 25 cents" where interchange is the passed through cost charged but the credit card company itself. Stripe is 2.9% + 30 cents with no interchange, which I think would be a small improvement. The real thing would be more payment method. I started looking at a few a bit ago. Square actually upped their rate from when I used them last. They're 2.9% plus 30 cents for api based transactions which ours certainly will be. I think you can accept ETF payments and perhaps even crypto that way, as well. Check with some major banks as well. BOFA used to call me often when I owned my food truck and offer me 0%+30 cents per. I stuck with square, though, because it was still just flat 2.7% for me which came out slightly cheaper per transaction. If my average transaction was higher it would have been worthwhile.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:It works in the lower right also - I never use it but it's cool that it's there. I actually had no idea there was a lower-left version until this post. That's a cloudfare feature added by lowtax when he turned on a bunch of cloudfare stuff years ago.
