Exhibit Credit Card Logos and Optimize Online Profits
When you shop at a service business or retail store one of the very first things you see while walking up to the door is the store hours, and a credit card logo, displaying what types of credit cards the store will take. Potential customers just assume that they will see those things. There'll be times when the customer will walk away, and the store will lose the sale if they do not see the credit card logos.
The world of internet retail isn't any different! Studies have shown that one of the first things an internet buyer eyes on a webpage is a credit card logo image. A credit card logo is important, in that it tells the consumer a few things. First it tells the customer that you've got an internet merchant account, such as Authorize.net gateway, and that you do take bank cards. Second, the credit card logo relays to the consumer specifically which credit cards you take. Lastly, observing the logo gives the customer confidence. They know you're "a genuine company" because the logo tells them you've got an internet merchant account and you accept certain kinds of credit cards.
To experience internet success, you have to give your clients various payment options. At a bare minimum, your online merchant account should permit you to welcome these main types of credit cards: Visa, American Express, Discover, and Mastercard. By welcoming these types of credit cards, you will better be able to compete. If you don't showcase the credit card logos on your home page, rest assured that clients will keep looking until they discover the online page of your competitor. In case there is traffic on your web page, displaying a credit card logo will increase your business profits.
There are many methods to display the credit card logo on your web page. When you signed up for your
merchant account
, you most likely got a welcome kit from your merchant account processor. This welcoming kit will usually contain copies of the credit card logos. If you're good with a scanner, then you'll be able to scan these credit card logos, convert them to a gif or ipg format, and publish them on your website. This approach is simple, but it is certainly not the most convenient way to add the logo to your webpage.
You'll find multiple web sites online that offer credit card logos. Some sites charge you for them, others charge nothing.
