approved spending limit: |
|
|
|
|
|
Brick-and-mortar and retail or restaurant environments-swipe the card or key in the number through a point-of-sale terminal (i.e., card is physically present). |
|
|
|
Mail order/telephone order environments-enter the card identifiers the customer has provided you by mail, telephone or fax (i.e., the card is not present). |
|
|
|
Internet environment-Customer provides your Web site with card identifiers (i.e., card is not present). |
|
|
Step 2-Real-time authorizing, which reduces chargebacks and catches
card-entry errors: |

Terminal or software transmits the credit card number and expiration date and sales total to Merchant Solutions IQ. |
|
|
|
Merchant Solutions IQ transmits data to customer's credit card-issuing bank. |
|
|
|
Customer's issuing bank approves or declines the transaction. |
|
|
|
Step 3-Completing the transaction: |
|
|
|
|
|
Merchant's terminal or software transmits transaction details to Merchant Solutions IQ in a batch at the close of the business day. |
|
|
|
Merchant Solutions IQ forwards transactions to each credit card company, which redirects the transactions to appropriate banks. |
|
|
|
Bank debits credit cardholder's account and credits Merchant Solutions IQ Merchant Services. |
|
|
|
