Offering your clients to pay by credit card

[s.p.t plastering]

Do you reckon this would attract more work if could be done?

I reckon it'd be a good idea, if people could pay for bedrooms to be skimmed or ceilings or anything really by credit card, you get the money straight away plus you'd be able to bump the price up, and they get the flexibility of paying at a later date

I doubt the credit card idea would work but you could set up a dont pay for 2 years and 0% interest and all that bullshit, you just need to get a loan shark on board simples

My bank said that they could give mobile terminals to accept cc payments for face to face customer...

It will cost you.

and ud have to say, by credit card thatll be an extra 2.5%

I think its a good idea make sure you have all the relvant documents from the bank to show the customer and they have no reason not to trust you and adding 2.5 or 3% when paying by card is the norm

i think the lack of trust would come from there being nothing from stopping someone putting a card cloning thing in the machine.

When customers wanna pay with a cheque i try and get them to pay straight in to the bank via online transfer. It quicker and cheaper. its a right ball ache waiting 4-5 working days for a cheque to clear

They will get charged a higher interest rate for withdrawing cash.

You could always use Paypal. Quick and safe way to pay by card

Paypal is a good idea!
