Merchant acquiring services
Help boost your business by giving customers an easy and convenient way to pay for goods and services. The Co-operative Bank’s merchant acquiring facility enables your business or organisation to accept payments securely via credit and debit cards.
You can accept payment from all the major credit cards providers including Visa, MasterCard, Solo, Diners, American Express and UK Maestro, using your own terminal or one rented from the Bank.
Accepting payment by debit and credit cards:
- speeds up transactions
- enables multi-channel purchasing to a wider customer base – payment can be accepted over the telephone, on the internet or face-to-face
- allows the automatic transfer of funds
- helps to protect your business against fraud – the system recognises stolen/invalid cards
- eliminates the need to hold large amounts of cash on the premises.
Whether you trade online or from fixed premises, a merchant acquiring service can enable your business to accept payments from anyone with a credit or debit card and help simplify your sales administration process.
For further information about merchant acquiring, please contact your Relationship Manager or your nearest Corporate Banking Centre.
