Today is officially Get to Know Your Customers Day, but at PCM Payments, we already know our customers! We truly make it part of our mission to get to know our customers every day. 😊

Small businesses are what make communities vibrant — and we're 100% here to support that. We love to put names to faces and to create personalized experiences for each individual. We are crusaders when it comes to saving money for clients and lifting any fog that exists around merchant service solutions. We draw inspiration from the “thank you” that we get from clients when we save them money so they can invest back and grow their business.

We want to dedicate this post to YOU, our clients. 💚 Thank you for being you, and we so appreciate your business! Contact us any time with questions or feedback — just email PCM Partner Jim Fenton at [email protected].

What's one thing that every customer has in common? They all want to save money, when possible! And what's at the top of every business owner's list? You guessed it — cutting out unnecessary expenses.

Cash discount programs are great solutions for businesses and customers to both save, save, save. 💰

Here's why:

☑️ Cash discount programs are just that — discount initiatives that incentivize customers to pay with cash instead of credit cards.
☑️ Customers still have the option to pay with a credit card for a small service fee.
☑️ This means you're off the hook. You no longer have to pay customers' credit card service fees.

Everyone wins! Call us at (978) 339-5090 or visit https://pcmmerchantservices.com/ to learn more.

Not sure what the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) is all about? The ERTC rewards business owners for their efforts to keep employees on payroll. Keep reading — this could be something for you to take advantage of!

🔹 The ERTC was part of a massive $1.9 trillion COVID relief bill recently passed by Congress.
🔹 The ERTC is one of the most lucrative and misunderstood opportunities out there right now, and we want to get the word out so business owners can take advantage of it.

How does a business qualify for the ERTC?

✅ One automatic qualifier is if a given quarter between Q2 2020 and Q3 2021 saw a revenue shortfall against that same quarter in 2019. If a business meets that criteria, celebrate, because you qualify!
✅ Businesses may also qualify if they had to: suspend operations, close their doors, push customers away, social distance (i.e. at salons and/or restaurants), change business models, re-align supply chains, stop attending trade shows, etc.

Contact Bruce at [email protected] to see if your business qualifies for ERTC.

"Now we've entered a new era where direct card-to-reader contact isn't necessary—nor even is the card in our wallet. The rising popularity of contactless payment has resulted in rapid evolution and implementation worldwide."

For decades now, the manner in which we store, access and spend our money has been shifting. Early in our history, precious metals and minted coins held currency value; then came the rise of fiat currencies, issued by governments and without direct commodity backing. This proved to be a revolution i
