Great place to work. Residual splits are above average in the industry. Excellent staff. Lots of direction and training. Best place I've worked in my 40 years of employment.

Montana helped me switch my merchant services to Midwest. Couldn’t be happier, no more credit card fees! Also, love my new clover system works great and super easy to use. What I love about the company is getting support from a real local person not like my old company when I would have to speak to someone from a foreign country that I couldn’t understand. Highly recommended, if you’re considering do yourself a favor and make the switch

Travel & Timeshare Merchant Account Types

No matter the type of travel or timeshare business you manage, providing multiple payment options to your customers ensures their convenience. At Midwest Merchant Services, we assist our merchants in accessing a variety of merchant services. Let’s delve into the different payment methods we support:

Online
In today’s digital age, embracing online payment opportunities is essential for your travel business. We offer sophisticated online payment solutions that can integrate seamlessly with most eCommerce platforms, allowing for easy acceptance of online transactions. Our security-centric approach includes fraud-prevention tools that equip your business with robust chargeback protection.

Retail
Though brick-and-mortar travel agencies are becoming less common, certain travel businesses still operate physical locations. Whether you’re combining online transactions with in-person payment processing, we provide retail payment solutions that facilitate convenient payments for tours, rentals, and other travel services.

Over the Phone
Additionally, accepting payments over the phone through a virtual terminal is crucial for providing ultimate convenience to your customers. These digital terminals allow for easy entry of credit card information over the phone or via email when the card is not present. Virtual terminals offer a straightforward payment option for customers, particularly useful for sales hotlines or customized services, without the need to visit a physical location.
