About this episode
In today's podcast we are discussing .... What should you know before you start an e-commerce store. What platform are you going to use? And if you are going to need a merchant account does that platform support your business type. We speak to business owners all the time and they have built a website only to find out the platform does not support their particular business type for payments. You might have to pay half a percent up to 2% to use an outside service. I always say do your homework before you begin, ask questions. WordPress is agnostic and you can use any payment processor - many of the platforms have limited what types of businesses they can approve for merchant services. Also - will you need a fraud solution like 3D secure, Chargeback services, a gateway -and you need to make sure they are all compatible with your shopping cart. Will you be running a subscription or recurring billing - Listen in and watch for more episodes about e-commerce from B2B Vault, follow us on social media or your favorite podcast network!
