I come across too many business owners who do not have this crucial foundational system in place. With a merchant account you can very easily accept all major credit cards (without your clients and customers having to go via Paypal which, for various reasons, I don’t recommend).

Sometimes, they also use this tactic on credit cards and they would just ask you to give them back the extra money. This is a way to hack into your system.
