Your first choice for secure online credit card processing, online merchant accounts, and direct debit / direct payment solutions

Visit Beanstream today!

I’d like to take a moment to talk about Beanstream. Beanstream is the merchant services and payment gateway system we’ve chosen to use here at Quarky Science. I’d like to explain why.

The easy thing, the very simplest thing, would have been to just sign on to PayPal. It’s ubiquitous. Everybody uses it. And it’s really easy to sign up for an account. But when we were doing our research, we found quite a few sad stories and a lot of customer discontentment. Also, it adds one more payment layer between the store and the customer, which can make issues a lot harder to correct.

Then we found Beanstream. We’ve heard nothing but good things about Beanstream. They are used by many large organizations, such as TD Bank, Future Shop, Shaw, and Equifax but also small local shops, like the artisans at The Copper Hat who handcraft badger hair shaving brushes for sale here in Victoria. What we discovered is that it makes no difference if you are small company or a start-up, you still get the same friendly, helpful service as the big guys. And they hold us to the same high standards, so you can be assured that our web site is safe and secure and that we’re doing everything possible to protect your personal data.

Quarky Science is pleased to recommend Beanstream as our merchant services and payment gateway of choice.
