Accepting Credit Cards At Shows

Sunday July 9, 2006
Things sure have changed since we started selling crafts. We used to used one of those old machines to carbon copy credit card information. We had a huge book with invalid numbers to help make sure the number was not stolen! (That didn't work very well, obviously...) Then, after the show, I had to call an 800 number to get verification on the number and amount. Now, you can use wireless terminals in your booth for instant verification.
