I got the little credit card reader for my smartphone working. I'm all signed up and have accepted one payment. It isn't even as wide as the top of my phone. This is what it looks like:
With PAYd, that's the rate, nothing extra. It's better than the one I'm paying now. It's 2.9% + $0.15/transaction if I key in the numbers instead of swiping the card. I also don't have to pay a monthly fee for this. If the money shows up quickly in my bank account, I'm going to cancel my other merchant account.i just saw an ad on TV for the SQUARE, a similar device. They stated only 2.75% per transaction. Not sure if that's in addition to the charge from the credit card company or not.
Thank you for your good wishes. Slept most of the day away, am feeling a little better, I will check with the doctor on monday, appreciate your concern.May I suggest that since you have a serious medical illness, you might want to consult your doctor before changing any meds - and OTC drugs and supplements are meds that can affect the way Rx drugs work. I imagine you're having lots of blood work done, so ask for a blood chemistry to see if you're deficient in any vitamins or minerals. Hope you feel better soon.
I assume they are doing the compliance testing.That's pretty cool, TL. Especially if you travel and need to accept cc's from your customers. And that's a pretty good rate. That was a pretty good rate you had before, too, for non-qual sales.
I read something a while back that wireless processing was the most compromised way to run a card. Are those subject to annual compliance teseting? I imagine they have to follow all the same rules.
Good thing you have dogs, Pac.
Yes.
I need to get around to replacing the one I just put down here shortly. Petra will be ten this month and Pierce isn't much of a watch dog. Let me rephrase that... he's very good at just watching
We plant about 3 acres...so we have a HUGE garden. It is all for us, the 4 dogs, and chickens--and some that we give away. I have an herb garden that is 4 ft x 8 ft. I'd have to take multiple pictures to show everything. But, we usually put in about 300 tomato plants, 50 pepper plants (hot and sweet), 400 ft of sweet corn, 200 feet of potatoes, 400 feet of beans, 100 ft of peas, I don't know how many feet of squash and pumpkin, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussel sprouts, cabbage and about 10 zucchini plants and several rows of kale, swiss chard, celery, carrots, beets, parsnips, rutabaga, eggplant, bok choy and other things. Oh, and lots of onions. The only thing we don't really have a lot of are blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
Better wait a few weeks. Spring in the Great White North is kinda soggy and muddy, especially in the country, until stuff gets a chance to dry out from melting away all that snow and ice.That sounds like heaven to me! That's it, I'm packing my bags and running away. I'll bring a tent and camp in your garden
It would be a bit cold right now, Snip. But July and August--that works, if you can tolerate the mosquitoes! That's when there is lots of variety of stuff to eat from the garden. We turn vegetarian then. And, you don't have to bring a tent--the farm includes a 3-bedroom furnished house.Better wait a few weeks.

Earlier today I took a walk over to the neighbor's house. A sure sign of Spring, he was outside changing his studded tires out for the regular tires. And I was surprised to hear that every vehicle around us, including one at the cop's house that kind of lives beside me, was broken into Monday night The light bulb's started coming on...
Tuesday morning as I opened the drapes I wondered what the police was doing so long at the house across from me, then next to them. Now I know.
And Tuesday I wondered how the heck my dome light in my truck got turned on. Now I know.
And then I remembered something waking me Monday night, it might have been my dog who prefers to sleep downstairs where it's cooler letting out a bark, I really can't say what the noise was that first woke me, but I definitely remembered my bedside dog trotting across the floor and looking at the bedroom door. Something woke him, too. And that's what really woke me up. Enough to say, Pierce, get back over here and lay down... And now I know. Talk about crappy situational awareness or maybe complacency. I should have gotten up and at least looked out the bedroom window. It looks right down on my truck with an area light to light things up on that side of the house. I might have been able to catch a glimpse.
And then the neighbor told me about the big heroin problem the local high school has Something that has not made the news or papers for obvious reasons...
So today I learned that life in the country isn't much different than life in the city. I think I'll be looking into some kind of monitoring devices.
