Merchant Accounts – What are They?

What is a merchant account you ask? A merchant account allows business owners to accept credit cards as a form of payment at their business. Merchant accounts are part of the system that transfers payments between card issuing banks and the banks of participating merchants.

Merchant accounts are offered to business owners through 3rd party vendors called ISO’s or agents. There are really only 3-4 major processing companies, each representing a different platform. These major processors use independent sales offices to market their services. 1st American Merchant Funding is one of these independent sales offices, as well as being a leader in merchant cash advances and business funding.
