E-Commerce Merchant Account

What is an E-Commerce Merchant Account?

The sale of goods and services has changed as a result of eCommerce’s explosive expansion. Online shopping is done by around 2 billion people, or 25% of the world’s population. 14% of all retail sales already involve payments made through e-commerce.

The specialized bank account that enables you to accept and handle credit card transactions from online customers is known as an e-commerce merchant account. When a consumer makes a purchase on your website, the money is transferred from their bank account into your merchant account through a secure payment gateway.

Online merchants can take credit and debit card payments with the help of ecommerce merchant accounts. Including other payment options is frequently done as a quick and easy strategy to boost sales. The more payment options you offer, the more sales you make.
