Frequently Asked Questions
What is a virtual terminal and how does it work?
A virtual terminal is a web-based application that enables merchants to process electronic payments received via phone, mail or email without requiring any hardware or coding. With BlueSnap Virtual Terminal, merchants enter the customer’s payment information directly into the system to process ACH and card payments or send customers a Payment Link so they can enter their own payment details securely.
Do I need to be online or have special hardware to use BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal?
BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal requires an internet connection to process payments. It cannot process payments offline. To use the Virtual Terminal, you don’t need to install any special hardware or software, or know how to code to get started. Because Virtual Terminal is entirely browser-based, it works on any Mac or Windows device with an internet connection, making it accessible for businesses of any size without upfront infrastructure investment.
What information do I need to collect to process a payment through Virtual Terminal?
To process a payment through BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal, merchants need to collect the customer’s card number, expiration date, CVV and billing zip code. ACH payments require bank account details instead. Merchants can also store customer payment information securely for future charges, eliminating the need to collect the same details repeatedly for returning customers.
How does BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal help businesses reduce late payments?
BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal helps businesses reduce late payments by replacing slow, manual payment processes with fast electronic payment collection by phone, mail or email. Businesses can also send customers a Payment Link directly from the Virtual Terminal, enabling customers to pay immediately without a live phone interaction.
Can I accept international payments through BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal?
Yes, BlueSnap’s Virtual Terminal supports international payments, so businesses can accept payments from customers around the world. For businesses operating in multiple regions, BlueSnap also offers local acquiring in 50 countries.
