Virtual terminal for mail orders
Virtual terminal for mail orders and phone orders
A virtual payment gateway for telephone and mail orders is what your business often needs for its development. Accept payments over the phone and increase sales by up to 70%. A virtual terminal is a simple and secure solution for accepting bank cards.
This terminal is part of a payment solution that allows your business to accept payments by phone, email or over the Internet.
The payment gateway allows you to accept card payments on multiple devices. The virtual bank card processing terminal allows merchants and businesses to accept payments by phone, mail or online from anywhere in the world.
This is the best solution for customers who do not have a card. The merchant enters the card details into the form on behalf of a customer who is not physically present in the store.
A virtual terminal is the best way to accept online payments without investing a lot of money in a complex system.
No special equipment is required, and the virtual terminal provider is responsible for compliance with Payment card industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), since card data is not stored with the seller.
Scheme of work
- The client sends you the payment details by mail or by phone.
- The seller enters these payment details into the virtual terminal.

What businesses use virtual terminals?
Businesses that accept payment information from customers who are not physically present on the spot – transactions of the “card without presence” type – use virtual terminals. This is also an option when a mobile terminal is required or when customers prefer contactless payments.
Enterprises using virtual terminals include:
- Postal and telephone order businesses, also called MOTO businesses.
- Restaurants, canteens and cafes that process telephone and online orders.
- Businesses with delivery, such as food and beverage stores, florists and gift shops.
- Mobile businesses such as food trucks, groomers and photographers.
- Freelancers such as web designers, artists, SEO specialists and accountants.
What to look for in a virtual terminal?
If you already have a point of sale system for your business and you want to add a virtual terminal for limited use, then the best option would be to use an existing provider. However, if more than a quarter of transactions are entered manually, then a payment processor offering a reliable virtual terminal may be a reasonable choice.
Price
The cost of processing credit cards is very important when evaluating options. There are many pricing models, such as fixed rate, interchain plus and membership plans. Since each payment processor has its own prices, it is not easy to make a quick comparison.
This credit card processing cost calculator will help you get an idea of the cost of each plan based on the volume of transactions carried out manually.
For example: Let’s say a processing service charges $100 per month for using its platform, and a virtual terminal is provided free of charge.
The processing fee is 2% of the total transaction amount plus 10 cents per transaction.
If you conduct about 80 manual transactions per month totaling $4,000, you will pay a monthly fee of $100 and a processing fee of $80 (2% of $4,000) plus $8 (10 cents x 80 transactions) – a total of $188.
A company with a large volume of telephone orders may benefit from a membership-based model with a lower processing fee, while a company with a small volume of telephone orders may pay less using a fixed-rate model and no monthly fee.
