WHY the Smiley? Lots of people ask us “What in the heck does a SMILEY FACE have to do with Credit Card Processing and why does everything TMC does, have a Smiley attached to it?”- we love the question and here is the simple answer. MOST business owners do not find JOY in working with their credit card processor- in fact, quite the opposite! So when we decided to take care of businesses and their processing needs, we knew we had to be different. The SMILEY FACE sends a certain message: We are glad to see you, hear you, work with you and to be of service. We CARE about you and we will do everything we can to put a smile on your face. Credit card processing is one of the products we provide but Taking Care of People and delivering a SMILE WORTHY experience is who we are and WHY we do what we do.

Understanding & Minimizing Chargebacks

Consumers have a TON of control in the marketplace. They can lift businesses up with their purchases and they can bring businesses down by withholding their spending. When a consumer elects to dispute a charge, it is called a CHARGEBACK and that action can have serious financial repercussions for businesses! Sometimes, a cardholder does not recognize a charge on their monthly credit card statement. In this instance, they can call their card company and request a copy of the receipt. In MOST cases, these RETRIEVAL REQUESTS are enough to satisfy a cardholder and they remember their charge. Be sure to respond to these requests rapidly as failure to respond in the limited time frame provided, can cause the unnecessary loss of funds for your business. Below, you will

Lessons From a Time Zone

There are 6 time zones in the United States. On a recent trip to Montana, we drove from the Pacific Time Zone into the Mountain Time Zone. Not a big deal- nothing happened, no lights went off and there were no earth-shattering events to celebrate the move from one zone to another. Normally the shift in time would mean just that and that alone- a shift in time. But on this trip, we were headed to see our Son Tyler; which made the time zone shift significantly in my eyes. I remember thinking- “today I am so thankful to wake up in your time zone Tyler”. And then I started thinking about the moments that make our lives so special; the little things that make the biggest of

Satisfaction vs. Loyalty

Simply telling people that “We have GREAT Customer Service” falls on deaf ears these days- why? Because the easiest thing in the world is to promise a GREAT Customer Service experience!! Do any of these situations sound familiar? Thank you for calling ABC Company, your business is VERY important to us- please HOLD. TRANSLATION: Thank you for calling ABC Company, your business is so important, that we are inadequately staffed to handle your call. You enter a business and wait to be greeted- several minutes later you are STILL waiting. TRANSLATION: We’ll get to you when we get to you- we don’t really care that you decided to spend your money with us today. You enter a store and ask the clerk for assistance- you get ‘that’ look.
