Benefits of Accepting MasterCard®

Accepting MasterCard Cards Is
A Smart Decision For Your Company

MasterCard is Shaping the Future of Money® by developing sophisticated new technologies to improve the way you do business with your customers. Whether you're a new business or an established enterprise, accepting MasterCard is likely to have a big impact on your bottom line. Enjoy the many benefits of accepting MasterCard, including:

  • Increased Sales
    Consumers spend more when they're not constrained by cash. You could see increased purchases of higher-margin products and speciality items. Plus customers may visit your store more often.
  • Customer Satisfaction
    Your customers will appreciate having more flexibility to pay the way they want to pay – including by credit or debit card. Happier customers are more loyal customers.
  • Speed of Checkout
    You'll speed your customers through checkout with rapid electronic payment. No more counting change or waiting while customers write cheques.
  • Improved Efficiency
    Card transactions today are conducted electronically – which means no paper. Paperless payments can save time and money by minimising cash handling and payment reconciliation.
  • Safety
    With lower volumes of cash, you're less vulnerable to theft and pilfering.
  • Currency Conversion
    Electronic payments on MasterCard and Cirrus® cards are settled in the currency in which you sell your goods and services, regardless of where the cardholder is from.

Displaying the MasterCard Brand Mark (Logo)

The bold MasterCard brand mark helps merchants around the world just like you take advantage of the benefits of exterior signage.

MasterCard signage means big opportunities.
You can use MasterCard signage as a competitive advantage. By placing a window or door brand mark outside your store, you can show that MasterCard is an accepted form of payment. This could result in higher traffic flow and increased sales for your business. To learn how you can put MasterCard signage to work for you, contact your merchant services provider.

The Mastercard brand mark can lead to increased profits.
Another benefit of displaying the MasterCard brand mark is reducing processing fees associated with paying by cheque or cash. You can experience improved cash flow with MasterCard payment versus cheques because card transactions are typically settled in 24 to 72 hours.
