Virtual Terminal Credit Card Processing
What Is a Virtual Terminal?
A virtual terminal is a secure, web-based payment solution that allows you to manually process credit card transactions from any computer or authorized device with internet access.
It’s ideal for businesses that accept payments over the phone, by email, through invoices, or via recurring billing. Instead of swiping a card, you simply enter the customer’s payment details into a secure online portal.
With Suncoast Payments, your team can log in from any approved device and safely process transactions from virtually anywhere — making remote payment acceptance simple and secure.
