Flint Makes it Easy for Small Businesses to Accept Credit Cards with a Phone
It’s difficult for any small business to become profitable without taking credit cards as a form of payment. So many people pay exclusively with their debit and credit cards that incorporating some sort of credit payment system is pretty much a requirement, even for one-person ventures. Unfortunately, integrating credit card payments into a business can incur both extra costs and complications. Flint is a cool product that takes the recent advances in mobile technology and uses them to make adding a credit card payment system to a small business model much easier. Flint turns smartphones into credit card scanners with no extra attachments. Rather than forcing salespeople to carry around a separate device for credit and debit payments, Flint simply uses a cell phone’s camera to scan cards visually. Users simply act as if they’re taking a picture of the front of a card. The app then scans for the credit card number. All users have to do after that is input the verification code from the back of the card to complete the transaction. This system could save many one and two employee businesses much of the hassle that comes with accepting credit cards. Any users whose cameras are broken will need iPhone repair or Android repair services to use the Flint application.
Flint reduces costs and hassle for small businesses and traveling salespeople in multiple ways. The most obvious way Flint helps is by eliminating the need for small businesses to purchase special card readers for their employees to carry around. Eliminating this need not only increases convenience by reducing what employees have to carry with them, but also potentially improves overall functionality as many card readers have reliability issues that most smartphones do not. Of course, if any smartphone does encounter problems, smartphone PC repair is always available.
Flint lets their clients customize their digital receipts with business logos and special formatting. Flint also gives all of its customers access to an online system where they can see all their business’s credit transactions in detail. With Flint’s inherent convenience and the beneficial extra features it offers, it could potentially become a very attractive option for businesses wanting to accept credit cards.
