PayPal Virtual Terminal vs. CardX

Accept payments for sales made over the phone or through mail with ease. Our virtual terminal provides a straightforward solution for managing credit and debit card transactions related to offline sales, all without the need for a dedicated website or point-of-sale (POS) system. When an order comes in through mail or phone, you can quickly process payments using a credit or debit card. There is no requirement for coding, additional software, or specific hardware—simply use a web browser. Each action taken within the Virtual Terminal is logged in your PayPal reports for your convenience. To begin, log into your PayPal Business account via your web browser and navigate to the Virtual Terminal from your dashboard or the Business Tools section. To enhance the efficiency of your transactions, you can take advantage of the optional Quick Order form. This feature allows you to input shipping or delivery addresses along with any necessary contact details. After completing the transaction, you can choose to send an email receipt and also print a pre-filled packing slip along with a PayPal Shipping label. Once your transaction is approved, the funds are generally credited to your account within minutes, and the transaction details will be visible in your Activity reports and other relevant documentation. This streamlined approach not only simplifies sales management but also significantly improves your business operations, allowing for a more organized workflow. Additionally, your customers will appreciate the promptness and professionalism of the service provided.

When customers make purchases using credit or debit cards, your organization benefits by receiving the full amount charged without any deductions. CardX assumes responsibility for any service fees and transaction costs, guaranteeing that you receive every dollar owed. In industries such as government and education, many payment processors have fallen behind in terms of technological advancement. Intelligent Rate employs a proprietary, patent-pending technology that can quickly determine the card type and its associated cost of acceptance in just under a second. This innovation results in a contemporary payment solution that meets the clarity and transparency expectations of modern consumers. With Intelligent Rate, customers are charged only for the costs they incur, akin to managing their utility bills and other service expenses. Unlike traditional flat-rate fees, which tend to burden users with less expensive cards like debit cards, this model promotes fairness in the payment processing landscape. Consequently, consumers can experience a payment system that is more just and customized to meet their individual requirements, ultimately enhancing their overall satisfaction. By prioritizing equity and transparency, Intelligent Rate fosters a more trustworthy relationship between consumers and service providers.
