Payment Processing Companies
Payment processing companies facilitate the secure transfer of funds between customers and businesses during transactions. When you swipe a card or pay online, these companies handle the communication and verification between your bank and the merchant’s bank. They ensure the payment data is securely transmitted, authorized, and settled quickly, enabling smooth and reliable purchases. Examples include companies like Visa, Mastercard, and Square. Essentially, they act as middlemen that make digital payments possible, safe, and efficient for both consumers and businesses.
