What nail salons in Garland pay in card fees, and how to get some of it back.
Nail salons are nearly 100% card, and every set, every fill, every pedi hands about 3% to a processor. On salon volume that's several hundred dollars a month that never reaches the people doing the work.
It is the same story along Garland Road and around the downtown square. The card company takes its cut before you count a dollar. Here is what is different with us: 20% of that cut comes back. We match the credit card processing rate you pay today, and every month we send you 20% of our cut.
A typical Garland nail salon runs about $25,000 a month in cards.
| Who you use | What you pay | What comes back |
|---|---|---|
| Flat-rate reader (Square, Clover Go, Toast) | 2.9% to 3.5% and up | Nothing |
| An old-school card company plus monthly fees | 2.3% to 3.0% plus fees | Nothing |
| Pacta | Same rate you pay now | 20% of our cut, every month |
Every card company keeps a cut of your sales. We send 20% of our cut back to you, every month. We show you your exact dollar amount on the call, in writing, before you sign anything. The program costs $24.99 a month, and you still pay the card fee on refunds. One tip when you compare card companies: the rate they advertise is never the real number. Take one month, add up every fee, and divide by your card sales. That is what you really pay, and it is almost always more than the rate you were quoted.
