We are helping business owners who processed credit card payments from Jan. 1, 2004, to Jan. 25, 2019, to get money back from Visa and Mastercard for overcharging their merchants.

I have personally applied myself, and many other businesses that I work with are taking advantage of this opportunity. It only takes about 10 minutes to apply. Once you apply, you can see other litigations that we are helping with.

The 5.6 billion that was settled will be disbursed among the businesses that apply. Don't miss your chance. The deadline to apply is Aug. 30th, 2024.

Please DM us if you have any questions. Don't sleep on this!

Have you ever wondered what happens after you purchase your item or service using a credit card? Below, we explain what happens and why you should work with a reputable company!

Navigating the intricacies of credit card processing is essential for any business aiming to optimize its payment systems and enhance customer satisfaction. The process encompasses several key components and stakeholders, each vital in ensuring seamless transactions.

Firstly, when a customer initiates a purchase, their credit card information is transmitted through a payment gateway, a technology that securely captures and transfers transaction data. The payment gateway serves as the intermediary between the merchant and the acquiring bank, the financial institution that processes credit or debit card payments on behalf of the merchant.

Subsequently, the transaction data is forwarded to the credit card network (e.g., Visa, MasterCard, American Express), which routes the information to the issuing bank—the financial institution that issued the customer's credit card. The issuing bank then verifies the transaction by checking the customer's account for sufficient funds or credit and assessing the legitimacy of the purchase to prevent fraud.

Upon approval, the issuing bank sends an authorization code back through the credit card network to the acquiring bank, which, in turn, communicates the approval to the payment gateway. This entire process, typically completed within seconds, culminates in the merchant receiving a confirmation of the transaction, enabling the sale to proceed.

It is also crucial to consider the financial aspects of credit card processing, including transaction fees, which consist of interchange fees (paid to the issuing bank), assessment fees (charged by the card network), and processing fees (levied by the acquiring bank). These fees can vary based on transaction type, card type, and business category.

For businesses, selecting a reputable payment processor that offers competitive rates, robust security measures, and reliable customer support is paramount. By understanding and effectively managing the credit card processing workflow, merchants can enhance their operational efficiency, minimize costs, and provide customers a secure and convenient payment experience.

🇺🇸 This Memorial Day, we honor and remember all the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their selfless dedication and courage will never be forgotten. Let us take a moment to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy today because of their service. May we always remember and honor their sacrifice. 🇺🇸
