CheapestMerchantAccounts.com is the leading credit card processing and merchant account review website available today, offering small business owners advice on finding and negotiating the best merchant services available. Launched in March of 2011 the website has seen significant growth driven by small business owners searching for a better deal on their merchant services.

"The growth of the website has been fantastic," states website co-founder Gerald Evans. "We knew when we started that many small business owners were overpaying for their credit card processing. With today's economy and the difficult choices business owners are having to make on a daily basis to keep their companies alive and thriving, overpaying on rates and fees for their credit card processing is just not a mistake anyone can afford to make."

CheapestMerchantAccounts.com offers visitors in-depth reviews on the best credit card processors available on the market today. They also have a full library of articles that teach individuals how to negotiate their agreements, as well as tips on what to look out for and how to avoid falling victim to bait and switch and other misleading tactics some credit card processors employ.

One challenge most business owners face is evaluating merchant service providers based on the advertised rates. As the industry rates are set by Mastercard and Visa, there really is little room to greatly undercut pricing on other processors. Often new merchants are unaware of this and sign with the processor offering the lowest rate, however with the various cards and lengthy/complicated contract, these individuals inevitably end up paying extraneous fees and higher than average rates on the cards and transaction types that their business see the most.

CheapestMerchantAccounts.com evaluates the lifetime costs of working with each merchant service provider, taking into consideration not just the rates advertised but the full schedule of rates and fees each processor works under. In addition their reviews take into account the customer service and support that is offered after the agreement is signed, awarding higher ratings to those processors who have in-house tech support teams.

CheapestMerchantAccounts.com is dedicated to helping small business owners find the right merchant account for their needs. For our current top rated processors and negotiating tips please visit us at http://cheapestmerchantaccounts.com/.
