A Better Alternative to Stripe and PayPal

  4. A Better Alternative to Stripe and PayPal
March 27, 2018

Many new merchants sign up with PayPal or Stripe to accept payments but often find that they have high cart abandonment and generally lackluster sales. In many cases, it’s not the product or the newness of the merchant that’s the problem – it’s the lack of a “real” shopping cart. Eliminating this issue is as simple as switching to a BAMS merchant account. Here are some of the biggest reasons to do this:

You Look More Professional

BAMS provides true merchant account capabilities that work within your shopping cart. This eliminates the switch to another provider’s site for transaction completion and thereby increases consumer confidence. Customers often get cold feet if they find themselves having to go through PayPal or another provider’s system when it comes time to buy. Outside checkout systems mark your store as that of an amateur, and this causes people to worry that things won’t go smoothly. A real merchant account reassures them that you’re actually ready to do business.

You Get Your Money Faster

PayPal is known for holding back funds from new accounts. This is supposed to reduce fraud, but in reality, it just makes it harder on you. If you run a dropshipping operation, or simply only buy the stock after someone has actually ordered it, you need to get your money and turn it around in short order. A real merchant account lets you have it within a day or two.

You Don’t Have to Worry About Surprise Platform Updates

External payment processors sometimes update their platforms in ways that break their integration with their site. Then, you have to drop everything and rush to install a new code in order to take any orders at all. You won’t have to put up with this costly nonsense with a real merchant account.

These are just some of the reasons you should choose BAMS over a provider like PayPal or Stripe. To learn more, just contact us.
