A merchant account is an intermediary account that captures and holds funds generated from Credit Card and Debit Card Sales. From there, they are released to your business’s bank account.
A payment gateway works with your shopping cart to collect payment details from your customers. The gateway securely transmits the card information through our processor and we generate an “approved” or “declined” message in real time.

Our approach to pricing is simple. We believe that each business is different and have different needs when it comes to pricing.

With our Virtual Terminal, you can turn any device with an internet connection and a web browser (Desktop, Tablet, Laptop, Mobile Device) into a credit card payment terminal at a fraction of the price of a point-of-sale terminal. The Virtual Terminal allows you to process secure, real-time credit card payments online – all you need is a web browser with an internet connection.

Visa and Mastercard have announced changes to their domestic Interchange programs. These changes are a result of the voluntary commitment made to the Government of Canada to reduce the cost of card acceptance for small and medium-sized merchants.
Generally, we fund our merchants on a daily or a weekly interval. The funding schedule will be determined by an underwriter based on the nature and model associated with your e-commerce business.
Canadian merchants can use any Canadian bank. We are unable to fund personal accounts. The account must be under your businesses name. US merchants can use any major American bank. Again, the account must be under your businesses name.
