As a small business owner, my biggest concern is not having any difficulties accepting a payment when a customer wants to make a purchase, and Global Payments lets us accept pretty much any payment type that a customer would want to use. Working with Global Payments was easy.

I know it’s safe. It’s safe for customers. When they start doing transactions online, it’s not easy with fraud. People are already used to it, and then they feel safe. And I wanted to have something that made my customers feel safe. Of course this is what also makes the company safe.

Now, when guests book rooms online, their payment is processed directly, instead of us having to process the charge on our terminal. That helped simplify the process for our customers – it’s a huge benefit for a hotel.

The customer service we get is great. Everyone at Global Payments answers your questions, they’re helpful, and they’re interested in finding ways to make your business work better. It’s obvious that they care about the people at the other end, and that’s amazing.
