What are the Fees Associated with Multilevel Marketing Merchant Accounts?
The fees Instabill charges depend on several factors, such as the merchant’s processing history, type of industry (high or low risk) and/or projected sales volume. Instabill charges no fees until your merchant account is approved by the acquiring bank with which we match your business.
Each merchant account is different, but typical fees include:
- Chargeback Fee
- Discount Rate
- Merchant Account Fee
- Merchant Account Registration Fee
- Monthly Statement Fe
- Refund Fee
- Transaction Fee
Chargeback Prevention for Multilevel Merchant Accounts
There is such a thing as buyer’s remorse.
Consumers are often unsatisfied with products or services.
Unfortunately, instead of contacting the merchant for a refund, consumers find it simpler just to call their credit card issuer and dispute the charge and file a chargeback — which isn’t good for anyone.
Virtual Terminal Use for Multilevel Merchants
Instabill provides qualifying MLM merchants with free access to our virtual terminal, which will allow you to accept credit card payments over the telephone or through mail orders. However, if you wish to accept credit card payments only through our virtual terminal, we will still require you to have a functioning website that meets the card industry’s requirements. Learn more by contacting a representative using the live chat feature above.
