The Gift Of Customer Loyalty

Wednesday, July 21, 2010 by Joshua B
Who doesn't like to get a gift card?  They are a great way to let the recipient get exactly what they want from the store of their choice, instead of having to return something that either they didn't like or that did not fit.  You retail store could be enjoying the additional sales and branding that come from your own gift card programs.  North American Bancard makes beginning this program simple and straightforward.  It's just another one of the advantages of having a merchant account with us.

I have heard over and over again, "gift cards would be great but I don't have the money or the time to put something like that together".  They think that the paper gift certificates are probably their only option.  Unfortunately, in addition to being a hassle, these gift certificates are easy to copy and use fraudulently, resulting in loss of profits.  North American Bancard has the best credit card processing for small business and part of that credit card processing power includes the ability to accept gift cards.

Don't wait any longer to begin building a more loyal customer base with customized gift cards that work with your POS system provided by North American Bancard.  Just like the gift card process, applying for your merchant services with us is simple and takes only minutes to complete.  Apply today or give us a call at 800-BANCARD.  We'll be happy to answer any questions that you may have about everything from payment processing fees to processing devices like the Nurit 2085.

Do Your Believe In Evolution?

Monday, June 28, 2010 by Joshua B
Business is constantly evolving to keep pace the trends and demands of consumers.  All of us have heard the saying "if you're not growing, your dying".  While cliche, there is certainly some validity to the statement.  Just a ten or fifteen years ago, virtually no one would have imagined that the majority of all transactions in 2010 would be done using credit or debit cards, rather than case.  Of course, even a smaller number of people could have foreseen the explosion of e-commerce and the affect that online shopping would have on all industries.

Today, the use of technology permeates our culture and business is no exclusion.  North American Bancard is a company that has evolved alongside you and your business and continues to provide best-in-class solutions to the latest demands put on you by your customers.  You may need our web-based services, like those offered by Authorize.net, in order to promote and capitalize on an online presence OR you may simply need a new POS system, including the Nurit 2085, at the checkouts of your brick-and-mortal retail shops, either way we can help.  Take a look at what we have to offer today, by visiting our website.  At the same time, you'll get a good idea of how we plan to continue to evolve, offering solutions that fit your needs and those of your customers.

The KISS Principle

Monday, June 28, 2010 by Joshua B
We are probably know the acronym KISS, "keep it simple stupid".  It may seem a bit crass, but the statement rings true in virtually all areas of life and business, including your POS system.  It shouldn't be complicated right?  Either you give your customers the option to conveniently pay with debit and credit cards or you don't.  While it may not quite be as cut-and-dried as that, North American Bancard does everything possible to ensure that its clients and their customers don't have to worry about unnecessary complications.

We understand that in close retail competition, many times customers are won or lost based on whether the checkout process was fast and painless.  After all, the checkout is likely the last memory that your customers will have in your store.  You should do all you can to make it a good one.

From wireless credit card processing machines to more traditional devices like the Nurit 2085, North American Bancard has the solutions that you need to simplify your POS and, well, your business life.  Check out our website or call us at 800-BANCARD to find out exactly how we can do that.

Digital Solutions For PCI Compliance

Monday, June 14, 2010 by Joshua B
Keeping your credit card processing system up to date is one of the best things you can do for your business.  An ineffective, outdated POS system can cause problems well beyond confusion of your staff.  It can ultimately lead to security concerns, possible information leaks and being vulnerable to skimmers or other data theft.  Luckily, you can avoid all of these potential problems by doing something today, speaking with a North American Bancard representative at 800-BANCARD.

We offer some of the newest and most secure payment processor software available today.  One of the most important features included with these new devices has to do with PCI compliance.  PCI compliance is a set of standards put in place by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (thus PCI) to ensure uniformity of security across the board and to mitigate much of the risk associated with payment transactions.  Our products, like those from Magtek, Hypercom and Nurit, including the Nurit 2085, are rigorously tested and certified as PCI compliant so that your mind can be at ease.

Safe & Sound

Monday, May 24, 2010 by Joshua B

So, whether you are looking for internet merchant account services or running credit cards through a traditional terminal, like the Nurit 2085, it is important to maintain PCI security standards and an easy way to do that is to work with North American Bancard.  Call 800-BANCARD or visit our website to find out more today.

Cost Vs. Lost Productivity

Thursday, April 15, 2010 by Joshua B
Sure, there may be costs associated with changing over your outdated POS system and merchant account, although with North American Bancard, those costs are very minimal. Even so, if you are putting off upgrading because of cost concerns, maybe you should reconsider.  If you are truly in need of new equipment, now is the right time to make a change.  Your old credit card equipment may be weight you down, preventing you from realizing the profits that you expect and the cost of a new system probably pales in comparison to that.

Technology and manufacturers have made great strides in recent years, developing new applications and credit and debit card terminals like the Nurit 2085.  Your old equipment is probably slowing down productivity, forcing customers to wait and hurting the positive experience that you have worked so hard to create in your retail establishment or restaurant.  Not to mention that you may have many more security concerns with older equipment, leading to breaches and privacy concerns.

Visit nabancard.com now to weight your options.  You may begin to realize that upgrading to a system provided by North American Bancard is less costly than you imagined and may end up saving you a lot, in the long run.

 

"S" Is For Simple

Monday, February 1, 2010 by Joshua B
It really shouldn't be complicated, should it?  Either your business has the ability to accept credit cards and make it convenient for your customers, or it doesn't.  With the use of credit or debit cards becoming even more prevalent among consumers, most businesses have added credit card merchant services as a payment option to their customers.  By now, most consumers simply assume that major debit or credit cards will be accepted at virtually all (if not all) of the places where they will be purchasing.  Where customers are won or lost is sometimes based on whether the checkout process was seamless, since this is the last memory that your customers will have in the store.

From mobile credit card terminals to the Nurit 2085 terminal, North American Bancard has solutions designed to simplify your card processing.  Our customer service team will work with you to ensure that the merchant service we provide fits your needs precisely.  Visit our website or call 800-BANCARD to find out more about our credit card merchant services.



The Evolution Of Payment Solutions

Monday, January 11, 2010 by Joshua B
If your business is not growing, it's probably dying.  I think we have probably all heard this cliche before, but it really is true.  There is certainly a continuing evolution in every aspect of the business world and payment solutions are no exception.  Two decades ago no one could have imagined that most consumers prefer to make payments with debit/credit cards rather than paying with cash.  Even more inconceivable would have been the explosion of online commerce.

Today, rather than having to accept credit cards using a slider and carbon paper, you're using a wireless credit card terminal or other electronic payment system, perhaps from your laptop.  North American Bancard is a company that will evolve with your changing needs.  Today, you may need our internet-based services, like Authorize.net to help your small business grow a presence online.  Tomorrow, you may need one of our POS systems including the Nurit 2085 placed at the checkouts of your growing chain of brick and mortar stores.  You get the idea.  Check out what North American Bancard has to offer today, and better yet, understand that we have and continue to evolve to offer solutions that fit the changing needs of our clients.

North American Bancard open to hear Consumer Complaints

Wednesday, November 11, 2009 by Josh T
We all know that as an irritated consumer or merchant, all we went is to be heard. Perhaps a simple transaction with a credit card terminal went wrong, or our Nurit 2085 all of a sudden shut down. When all things go wrong, we want to be heard by someone, whether it be a fellow employee, friend, or maybe the company associated with the broken down credit card machine.

North American Bancard is a proud supporter of breaking ground and getting straight to the concern of their clients. As a multifaceted payment solutions provider, North American Bancard is a credit card processor, processing billions of dollars in transactions for over 100,000 different merchants nationwide. No one company is perfect, and North American Bancard understands that there will be mistakes within the system, but it's how the mistakes and concerns are delt with, that makes the difference.

It is hard for a company at times, to recognize a certain concern or issue of a client if the client does not contact the company first with their complaint. I feel that many consumers out there feel the need to be heard, but if no one is around to hear them, they then turn to a third party resource, like My3Cents, and RipoffReport, for example. Writing out a complaint or issue on a third party resource will not solve the problem,but rather further it from being resolved. North American Bancard is fully staffed with a dedicated and knowledgable customer service team with open ears, ready and willing to resolve the concerns and issues of their clients.

To be heard, please voice your concern to the North American Bancard Customer Service team at www.nabancard.com/contactus/

Tuesday, November 3, 2009 by Tyler D
