Taking Credit Cards

[mikkifine]

I am in need of advice in relation to taking credit cards. Not all merchant accounts want anything to do with adult business.

Can anyone recommend a site that works with escorts?

Thanks,

Mikki

i keep seeing that commercial that has that little square thing, that attaches to an iphone or android? i've been thinking of checking it out.

lately, i've had several people out of the blue, asking about cc transactions. i know when i tried this the very first time about 5 years ago, i spoke with a woman off CL, and she had said she used paypal, because it works as a wire transfer, versus a payment. she just used some type of business name, and had a small business/ebay seller account.

my fear(and idk if it's unfounded or not), would be that obviously a company woud require we use our RL information. but as I said, I'm definitely with you on the curiosity!

im not a provider but just happened to click on this. SuthrnSam, what you are talking about is square.com, I use it for my comapny, a completely different industry than this. But I have turned a few of my regular providers onto this, one of them works for an agency and now the agency has one for each of the girls. Pretty simple to use, and just links to your bank account. On the account page you can choose the name that you want to appear on the customers creditcard statement.

I'm sorry if hobbyiest are not supposed to post here, just figured I had some info that could help answer your questions

greenguy you are fine. This the place to exchange business information.

Thanks a bunch. If you were I would give you a big kiss.

I hope that this square thing is not fussy like paypal. I have heard that paypal will keep the funds if they think it for something illegal.

I used the square for about a month, then they got nosey. They wanted me send in a tax id number which i dont have. I told them i had a kennel and i bought and resold iphones. They wanted to see pics of the dogs the phones and a facebook site where i did my advertising. Long story short the cancelled my account and i have to wait 90 days to get my last transaction.

Cash is the way to go. Don't think a client or his wife (because she doesn't recognize the charge) won't charge back on you right after he fucks you and then you're really fucked cuz you just fucked for free.

Hi
i personally take credit cards with my merchant account trough my business..I wish i could take square but i am from Canada and that is not an available option
My advise is if you decide to take CC make sure you declare income and pay taxes as yes they will get you that way..
Otherwise you have paypal but expensive per transaction and also cannot be adult work related
www.alertpay.com similar to paypal without restrictions

Square also takes prepaid visas. I get them at Target. You can also buy the squared reader at Best Buy for 10.00 and you get a 10.00 mail in rebate.

I was amazed that they had escorts as a listed option.
