The Special Needs of Card-Not-Present Merchants
Accepting credit cards over the telephone, through the mail, or over the Internet requires an entirely different solution set than your traditional point-of-sale based merchant account. As the Merchant, you have to deal with a substantial amount of risk when accepting payments and you need a merchant partner that can provide you with the tools to effectively manage that risk, while not interfering with your business.

We approve high-risk merchants when others won't. We have one of the highest approval rates in the industry, you can be confident when applying for a merchant account with First Data Independent Sales.

The LinkPoint Central option allows merchants to enter credit card transactions into their own Internet-connected computer browser.

The LinkPoint Central program is ideal for the merchant who wants a PC-based solution. Customer orders may come from telephone, fax, mail order, a non-commerce-enabled Web site, or even via e-mail. The orders are entered into an online PC, where sales, return authorizations and reports are all provided through the LinkPoint Secure Payment Gateway.

The interface also allows you to set-up recurring credit card payments. A great feature if you offer a subscription-based product.

LinkPoint Central allows merchants to manage everything related to transaction processing form one location. With its easy-to-use processing solution you can process orders from anywhere through any computer that has Internet access. It also offers access to full-featured reports, fraud protection and LinkPoint Connect setup.
