Credit Card Processing. Paychex Makes it Simple.

Paychex Payment Processing Services helps you get paid by your customers with the latest payment process technology, no long-term contracts, and no cancellation fees.
Payment Processing Options
You know your business and its customers, so choosing the payment processing service that works the best for both will benefit you in the long run.
Credit Card Processing
Think major credit cards — Discover®, Visa, MasterCard® — and beyond just credit cards. Serve more of your customers with a system that does more, including accepting EMV “chip” cards and gift cards, plus has options to add surcharges to credit card payments so you get 100% of the sale. Expand your customer base with dynamic currency conversion, which provides a receipt to international customers with the purchase in U.S. dollars, the conversion rate, and the cardholder’s home currency amount.
Online Payment Processing
Clear off counter space at work by making your PC a payment processing terminal. With CardPointe and Converge gateways you can accept credit/debit cards, eChecks, and gift cards – and you can do it in person, on the phone, and online. And with our mobile payment processing solution, you can process from iPhone, iPad®, and Android™ devices.
ACH and eCheck Payment Processing
There are people who don’t have or use credit cards. Why not tap into that potential customer base by offering Automated Clearing House (ACH) and electronic (eCheck) processing? You can save money since this processing cost nearly half of credit card processing, get paid quicker with same-day settlement, and boost customer satisfaction by making it easier for a wider base to purchase your goods and services.
Do More With Your POS
Accepting credit card payments is just the start. A modern point of sale system can help increase efficiency, manage your employees with clock functionality, drive better decisions through data (sales, inventory), and engage with customers through automated emails.
