European based web merchants |
 |
Examples of
why companies prefer using a multi-currency European
processing account:
▪
A merchant,
already domiciled in Europe, needs the ability to offer international payments
in the buyer's currency, his web site offers the product for sale in US
, Canadian and Australian dollar as well as GB pound and Euro. The
buyers never pay an issuer currency conversion fee because the
transaction was always processed in their
local currency..
This improves your customer satisfaction!
▪ Many European buyers
prefer to pay with their
local European credit card, European
direct debit or
bank transfer.
▪
Your
company's
customers are located outside of the USA and their card issuer is
declining sales. We can show how a European based merchant
account will improve the foreign authorizations; and boost your cash
flow!
Requirements for a Multi-currency European processing
account
▪
Company must own and maintain a web site that permits international
buyers. The web site must disclose the sales price and currency
along with the descriptor that will appear on the buyer’s statement.
▪ Atlantic must verify
company registration and bank reference, translated to the English
language where applicable.
▪
Visa and MasterCard European regulations require the merchant to be domiciled within the European region. The European company may be
owned by a parent corporation or have individual owners; either or both
will guarantee the merchant processing account.
