Sage is offering a new payment solution for our client base.  Sage Payment Solutions is an affordable online credit card processing service.  Merchants who accept credit cards can process these payments from within Simply Accounting.

Sage Payment Solutions is used for multiple products and has most recently been integrated with Simply Accounting.  What exactly do I mean when I say integrated?  You can process your invoice transactions in Simply and select a Pay By option.  If that option is a credit card and your Sage Payment Solutions merchant ID and Key have been activated in the settings, when you process the invoice with that pay by method a screen allowing you to key in the credit card information for processing is enabled.  Click the Process Credit Card button and record the payment and then post the invoice.  Within the invoice screen, you have recorded both the invoice and all aspects of the payment.

I'm not a sales person and I don't have much of a pitch but I was an end user and Sage Payment Solutions is a competitive, secure solution for handling merchant services and I do know that most small businesses want to save time and want to save money which is why I'm writing about this service.  If it's something you want to know more about visit the Sage Payment Solutions site.

The last thing I will say about Sage Payment Solutions at this point is think about the time and money and duplicate entry an integrated payment solution will save you.  Explore your options and make an informed decision about what is best for your company.
