Payment Practices that Support Social Distancing
The CDC, together with federal, state and local governments stress the importance of social distancing to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. Telephone, video, and curbside servicing have emerged as successful business models that allow providers of essential services to safely interact with customers during this crisis.
Keep Essential Business Running Safely
Businesses that primarily engage with customers in person need to implement additional payment practices
to safely interact with customers via telephone, video or curbside.

ProtectionMust protect merchants from significant increases in processing fees and fraud.
4 Ways to Optimize Remote Payments
1 Telephone Payments
-
Without certain security features, credit card transactions downgrade, which can add hundreds of dollars per month to processing fees.
-
Address Verification Service (AVS), Card Verification Value (CVV), and Level 2 credit card processing protect against expensive downgrades.
2 Remote Invoices and Signatures
-
Relying on verbal approval for work orders and receipts is inefficient and increases the chance of chargebacks.
-
Emailing customers invoices, work orders and receipts to instantly approve and pay remotely streamlines payments, improves cash flow and creates a digital record.
3 Hosted Payment Pages
-
Solely relying on over-the-phone or mail-in payments is inconvenient for customers and inefficient for the business.
-
Adding a “Pay Now” button on your website with a link to a branded Hosted Payment form allows customers to safely pay online.
4 Flexible Payment Plans
-
Declining service to loyal customers who are financially struggling due to the health crisis can further put them in harm’s way.
-
Offering valued customers flexible payments is key. Recurring Payments and Hosted Payments allow customers to pay over time.
