Cash? What is that?

I have developed quite the bad habit as I have gotten older - I am highly dependent on my credit cards and rarely, if ever, carry cash. My friend is quite the opposite of me as she works on a cash based system only but I think she is in the minority nowadays. If you are a small business owner and have not started credit card processing at your business you might want to consider it. With the growing number of places that do accept credit cards due to credit card merchants offering things like free credit card processing and free merchant accounts you want to make sure you are not left in the dust by the younger generations dependence on credit cards or plastic as I like to call it. If you are interested in learning more about how to start and obtain a merchant account to accept credit card processing for transactions or just merchant services in general check out this link about free merchant accounts. With no fee and help setting your account up, it would be silly not to look into this. Many small businesses have even reported an increase in business after they began accepting credit cards. I know I saw an increase back at the batting cages I worked at in high school. Good luck!
