I have been part of a fund raiser for a few years now. One common problem that I often faced is people would like to donate but might not carry enough cash and I didn’t have a way to charge their credit card. PayAnywhere came as an ideal solution for that. It’s a free Android application, comes with a free credit card reader and is absolutely easy to use. The interface is amazingly simple yet intuitive making it easy even for a novice to use.

It is a product from North American Bancard, one of the leading credit card processors today, which takes care of the security issues. Besides the customer service is also extremely efficient. I had to call them just once to set up my account – the process was hassle-free, I got my card reader in time and its been a smooth ride since then.

I first found the information on their website Credit Card Processing | Pay Anywhere while looking for a portable credit card reader and was delighted to find such a mobile based easy solution. They have both Android and iPhone version which makes it usable by even more number of people.

Any of you also using the app ? what has been your experience?

I havent used this app, but I have been using North American Bancard for about two years, and they are ridiculous. The customer service is horrible and on 3 different occasions, they have held large amounts of money from me for 'funding' issues. Currently, they are holding back over $3000 from me with no apologies. They said it would be 2-3 days and its already been 5.

I use Squareup instead. I've been using that for about 3 months with not a single issue. No extra charges, with a flat fee of 2.75% for all swipes including amex, and 3.15% for non swipes + .30. Have ran thousands through them without an issue.

I cant say the same for North American......I hope it works out for you, it definitely didnt for me.
