Category: Next Day Funding

Nobody likes waiting to access money they have rightfully earned. Yet, that’s the situation the vast majority of merchants are forced to deal with on every single sale they make due to the standard funding holds imposed by most payment processors. Those processors’ merchant accounts don’t give merchants access to the funds from their sales […]

Next-day funding is a merchant service some payment processors offer to trusted merchants. This waives the standard holds that generally hold up funds for as many as three business days on each and every batch. If you’re currently facing multi-day holds, you’re likely familiar with the frustration they can cause. Beyond frustration, there are serious […]

There are few things more satisfying than checking your numbers after a strong day of sales.

That’s valuable […]

The one thing better than getting money is getting it faster. It used to be that with merchant accounts, getting your transaction money in the bank in 24 hours was considered fast. After all, there are still a few companies out there that take 3 days! Now, however, even 24 hours is slow. That’s because […]

Waiting for the next day, 24 to 48 hours for your merchant transactions to hit your bank account may not seem like a big deal when you first open a business. After all, a regular job would make you wait a week or two before you get paid. Soon, though, you will find that financial […]

Providing customers with the ability to pay for a product or service with a credit card is an incredible service that could result in far greater revenues for the business. However, when you sell a product with a credit card, you often are not able to receive your actual payment for up to 72 hours […]

Many merchant processors only offer funding for completed transactions with a two- or three-day delay. If you’re used to this, you may not realize how much this is affecting your business, but it shouldn’t take much thought before you can think of some problems it has caused. New businesspeople can also easily envision scenarios in which […]

Money is the grease that keeps your business moving. Products, employees – keeping all those gears spinning is how your business gains and keeps its forward momentum. For cash transactions, making sure you get paid fast is easy, but what about your credit card processor?

Making a sale is always great, but it’s irritating to have to wait for the money from the transaction to hit your account. Even worse, the delay can make it hard to run your business in an efficient way, especially if your company is smaller or has a drop-ship arrangement with its suppliers. Eliminating this […]

For businesses that use credit card payment systems, getting their funds is the challenging part. The standard cash flow payout system that banks give to companies sometimes inconveniences businesses when they urgently need the funds. Next day funding systems cut through this gap and offer companies their deposits a day earlier than normal. So, why […]
