Merchant Account Question?

[jcsurfn]

Hi!

I have been looking at the merchant account info. I have looked at authorizenet. Does anyone know on averge what it costs per month with them? What I mean by monthly costs is not the % they get from your sale but like how much a month for there service and etc. I found it a bit confussing on some site to figure that out.

Thank You

Authorize.net has different programs but you could figure about $15/mo and $0.06-$0.10 per transaction.

I think you understand that authorize.net is just the gateway you still would need a merchant account to go with that and you should look for pricing around $0.30/transaction + $2.30 discount rate. Probably a minimum monthly fee of $25.

Before deciding on a merchant provider, you'll need to understand what type of gateway interface you'll need. Are you planning on building your own online store (via a shopping cart), or utilize someone else's service. Different applications have different interface requirements, so you'll need to contact the merchant provider if your intended interface is supported. Edula Web Hosting offers integrated merchant account, payment gateway service and turn-key osCommerce shopping cart solution at low monthly fee of $9.95/month. Discount rate is 2.29% with $0.30 transaction fee.
