Open A Merchant Account for your Business

Each newly registered company needs to have a merchant account to accept credit and debit card payments from its customers. However, banks are not willing to open merchant accounts for newly registered businesses. The most common reason for that is absence of a credit history.

Therefore, our company has teamed up with a well established Canadian merchant service provider, who is able to assist our clients with opening merchant accounts. This provider has a dedicated merchant consultant working with our clients.

If you order this service, the merchant consultant will contact you the same business day, assist you with selection of a type of merchant account suitable for your needs, help you to complete and submit the Application Form and work on your application.

Merchant accounts allow to accept payments online, over the phone, via email and in person. Most merchant accounts are opened within 7 to 10 days from the date of business registration.

Money is deposited into your bank account the next business day after the transaction.
