Credit Card Processing for Businesses

Running A Business 2 min read

Ready to talk to an expert?

If you are a business owner, you probably know that accepting multiple forms of payment (cash, debit, credit, and checks) is important. But you may not know just how essential credit card processing is to the success of your business.

In the next few years, only 23 percent of all point-of-sale purchases are expected to be made with cash. That means a greater number of shoppers favor credit and debit cards over the traditional cash payment. Couple this statistic with the growing trend of mobile shopping, businesses have to innovate to acquire and maintain customers.

Transitioning from cash-only to accepting other forms of payment may seem like a hassle, but with First Bank, it doesn’t have to be.
