How to Use Your iPhone in Your Massage Therapy Business


If you are looking for a home-based business and you are interested in helping people with their health and well being, massage therapy is an excellent option. You'll make good money, build a professional reputation and meet interesting people.

It's not a piece of cake to build a home massage therapy business, but it can be relatively less stressful than many other businesses. The relationships you build as you help your clients with their stress management and wellness means that you can build a strongly loyal customer base that can make your business revenues thrive.

Speaking about revenues, it can help to increase sales if you can offer your customers convenient ways to pay you for your services. Why accept only cash and checks when nowadays it is so easy to do mobile credit card processing with your iPhone?

How easy? It's really remarkable how simple it is to get started:

1. Get a merchant account and payment gateway from a reputable credit card processing and merchant services provider. Look for a merchant account provider that offers next day funding to help keep your cash flow running smoothly.

2. Download the app from the iTunes App store.

3. Once your merchant account and payment gateway are live, use your API login ID and transaction keys to set up your information in the App settings screen.

4. Transactions are entered and completed on one screen and you will know instantly when the card is approved.

5. Getting a receipt to your customers is easy. All you have to do is enter their email address into the App and, once the transaction is approved, the receipt will be emailed to them.

Mobile credit card processing with your iPhone is secure. Security features include AVS and CVV2 codes and SSL encryption for data transfer. Your customers' credit card numbers are not stored on your phone.
