Role of Credit In Terms Of Financial Institution
If you have been to roaming in city just to have
a free walk & you came across one beautiful
thing & you want to have that product, but for
god sake, you are not carrying any cash. What
will you do now? Go back to home, collect cash,
come back, pay, get the product or always carry
your credit card along with you. Which is
beneficial you only decide! Even nowadays
merchants do know that they are setting up
machines with every small outlet they have. It
is just needed to meet the basic need of the
large populous for the maintenance of the money
proceedings. It must be done, as it is the need
of the hour. Common features of the services
provided by service provider are as follows.
A bank should issue a merchant credit card for
the transaction purpose. & It should be
authenticated by any of the associate banks
hardware or software. Therefore the transaction
will authorize by credit card broker for the
particular merchant. Here we can see that how
much important role the merchant as well as the
customer plays in whole system. A bank or any
NBFC need to set up gateway of the VISA or
MASTER card so that number of transactions can
be completed daily, which will eventually give
the business to the bank. There are certain
norms, which should be fulfilled in order to be
eligible for the credit card. Whenever bank is
issuing any credit card it is taking some risk
on the credibility of the customer.
Suppose you have purchased some product from
some outlet & you are unable to pay for that
product then it becomes their liability to pay
the amount to that merchant. Definitely they are
getting hefty commission for taking that risk.
But they always check very carefully before
issuing any of the credit cards. If the customer
is fitting in their norms then they help the guy
to set up a free account with them. If the
person already an existing customer of the bank
then & very well aware with Internet based work
& also exercising due diligence then they are
asked for their credit union. If they are
offered the merchant account by the bank & given
the rights of the company which has performed
the service for them?
The beauty of the merchant account is that you
never ever need to disclose your credit card
details with anyone & still you can continue
with your business. Only thing you need to tell
to the counterpart is your credit card number &
it can be processed either through Internet,
mail & even can be faxed. The entire businessman
just enters their credit card number & their
business associates get paid automatically. Rest
of the things is taken care by the credit card
payment processors (ISO). The person gets the
amount in his individual bank account
immediately. In 2008 eBay launched pay pal -pay
later, where the customer had the choice &
buffer period of 90 days to pay for their
purchases made at eBay.
Initially there was only single competitor for
pay later that was billing me later. Whereas
credits offered by other merchants were not
included in the offer. Both pay later & bill
later offered the consumers to pay in two ways,
by pay later for 90 days & for bill later was 30
days or even sometimes merchants were offering
special terms, which generally used to be
deferred payment for 90 days period. With these
special offers customer would never used to
think of shopping the products apart from pay
later or bill later outlets.
