will be able to accept and process AMEX card transactions the same way you process other major credit cards like MasterCard and Visa. You’ll even have the same statement for all card networks and your funds will be deposited with a single deposit for all card transactions - where the time it takes to process payments made by AMEX cards will be consistent with that of the other cards. Q: What is a monthly minimum fee? A: Great question! A monthly minimum indicates the minimum amount in fees that a processor will collect in any given month. For example, if the actual fees resulting from processing activity don't meet or exceed the minimum amount, the processor will charge however much is necessary to meet the minimum. Q: What are CVC, CVV2, or CID codes? A: The CVC or CVV2 is a three-digit code following the signature box on the back of VISA, Mastercard, or Discover Cards. This code is an additional layer of protection in preventing credit card fraud. CID is a similar, four-digit code located on the front of American Express cards. Q: Am I in a contract with Signature? A: Like all merchants that process credit cards in the United States, your ability to accept credit cards is contractual.
