Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the first thing I need to do to start accepting credit cards?

    You will need a merchant account set up for your business. This will give you the ability to accept credit and debit cards in person, online, or over the phone. If you would like to sign up for a merchant account, you can call us at 855-499-2111, complete the “Get Started” form, or email us at info@FBSolutionsGroup.com

    Yes. FBSG leads the industry in debit card processing with access to both national and regional networks.

  • How long will it take before I can start accepting card payments?

  • When will I receive funds from the transactions which I process?

    Funds from your processed transactions will be deposited into your checking account the same day for batches before 4pm or next day for all other batches.

  • How are credit cards charged?

    Upon swiping a credit card in a POS terminal or entering the required customer information into a virtual terminal, the information is sent from the merchant to FBSG. FBSG then requests the money from the issuing bank, which is deposited directly into your bank account.

  • What is PCI compliant?

    Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliancy is required for all equipment for most transactions. FBSG offers a full line of secure PCI compliant POS equipment certified by Visa/MasterCard and American Express.

  • Why do different accounts have different rates?

    Different accounts have different rates depending on your business’s specific needs and risk factor. For example, some accounts may strictly be store front retail while some businesses accept credit cards over the phone (or “card not present”) which presents a slightly higher risk leading to slightly increased rates.

  • What if I already have processing equipment, but want to switch to FBSG services?

    No problem. FBSG supports all major terminals and processing equipment and would be happy to discuss the FBSG advantage with you in detail. Contact us to see if you equipment is compatible.
