What Are Card Not Present Transactions?
A card not present transaction refers to a payment made on a credit card when neither the physical card nor the cardholder is present for the transaction. Whenever the customer’s card is typed into a terminal rather than swiped or inserted by the customer themselves, this is known as a card not present payment.
Card not present transactions can occur online or over the phone in various scenarios. Common examples of card not present payments include remote orders, eCommerce payments, automated billing, online invoices, and more.
Because these are generally considered riskier transactions for financial institutions, many payment processors charge higher fees for card not present payments. Yet business owners aren’t left without options. The right payment processor can provide fast, secure, low-cost card not present transactions.
