As we come into the spring season, thoughts of warm weather, yard work and spring cleaning tend to overpower our instincts to tackle indoor projects, interior and desk house cleaning.  Check your processing statements from the past four to six months. This is sometimes the most overlooked part of your business and one that if not analyzed, can cost you money and aggravation down the road. With the holidays far behind us, and your Christmas statements probably stuffed in a drawer we’d like to remind you to dig them out and look at them, it will only take a minute. Depending on where you are in the country, your lives are getting busy right now and chances are you won’t get a chance to breathe for about the next eight months or so, so get it out of the way. Your bank doesn’t count on the fact that merchants will scrutinize charges and fees associated with their credit card processing during this time of year, so it is a good time to get your statements in order. Nothing can make a busy sales season more stressful and costly than dealing with housekeeping issues that you could have taken care of in the months prior. As you’re looking through your statements, pay special attention to chargebacks, a high amount of non-qualifying rates and annual fees. If everything is in order, good for you, if not and you would like to talk to someone about alternative processing solutions, call Stradafee or visit our website at Stradafee.com
