You need a merchant service account. There are many companies out there that can provide this for you. I would search google for “merchant services” this should give you a lot of choices. Be careful though! The merchant service industry makes there money trying to confuse their clients. There are different rates for swiping a card or punching the numbers in manually. If a customer uses a reward card you are going to pay a higher rate. You MUST shop these rates against at least three companies. Good Luck!
Call a few of your local area banks. Some do credit card transaction processing.
