I can't even count the number of clubs I've worked in within the last year that don't have credit card processing machines... it literally astounds me! How on earth do these clubs manage?! It affects the ability to sell champagne rooms, dances, alcohol etc. I would say it's a necessary business expense. These people have money, just not cash... & the clubs are basically sending them the message that money in the bank isn't good enough. Most guys don't want to carry around hundreds of dollars in cash for a champagne room, & many customers also don't know their PIN numbers, so they can't access the cash through the ATM.
I was all geared up & excited about Square coming out for Android, it's a mobile credit card processor that hooks up to your cell phone. This week would have been prime for me to try it out. Low & behold though I read through everything & they don't allow "Adult Services"... they even go so far as to specify topless in the "Adult Services".
So I'm wondering, what other options are out there for us? Can you think of any ways to accept credit directly from your customers, without breaking the Terms Of Service from the processing provider? Are their other types of dongles available to us or applications for phones?
