Image
Someone who taught me a lot introduced me to a good article . He said it's written by someone who has a unique philosophy that passionately working with customers should be seen as great pleasure in life. As I read the blog post, I came to realize that there are many scammers who are not like scammers in any business area. Everywhere.. Respectful attitude and philosophy... I felt that this should be read by as many merchant owners as possible. Below is the original content. "Voice of AAMS as a Good Merchant service Provider #1" - by AAMS Today, I am very happy to introduce AAMS(AA Merchant Services). As an official blog editor of the company, I have been waiting for an opportunity to write about why we are good merchant services providing company. CEO  shamed the writing on the blog about our proud of ourselves for the natural attitude we do our best for our customers.

Best POS for Coffee shop

  400 Million cups a day Coffee, Juice, Slush… Every morning, how many adults are habitually having coffee to wake up and energize their entire body? Statistically, 63% of Americans drink coffee every morning, consuming a total of 400 million cups of coffee each day. Considering the FDA-recommended limit of 400 milligrams of caffeine per day, that's about 4 cups.   80% of these coffee lovers having at least one cup of coffee at home, and the most avid consumers are over 60 ages. However, the true VIP segment of coffee shops is Millennials. This is because they (25~40s) are the most frequent customer of the coffee shop instead of home coffee.   Americans consume 146 billion cups of coffee a year, and the coffee-related market is worth about $80 billion. Of these, I couldn’t find exact data on how much money is actually spent in coffee shops. But if you factor in 20%, that's about $20 billion!   I don't feel like there are many coffee shops in the Unite...

Is it possible ‘Low credit card rate’?

We have to beware of gimmicks that annoy vendors and consumers with nonsensical advertisements such as 'Free credit card rate, 0% card rate'. Credit Card Processing? Merchant Service? Since last year, I have been in charge of a new project.  This time, not only the competency of IT experts but also initial planning is required.  But this time, I learned something new. Living in the US, I've seen a lot of commercials saying " merchant services " and " credit card processing ", but I've never wondered what it is, but I've been studying properly this time for my project. It's very interesting, but when I found out that there were a lot of deceptive advertisements that were not fraudulent, I had to explain it to my friend's brother who is preparing a restaurant. I didn't explain what I had to say by e-mail, so I decide to write it down here. In the United States, many small business owners have to process payments with credit or de...

Start blogging

Image
 I first moved to the United States from Korea in 2007. But now, I decide to start an English blog after 15 years of moving to the United States. I am very curious to see how this beginning would be ended in my life, what I have been doing, and what I have learned until retirement, especially what this will affect my sons later on. As a software developer in Korea for 11 years, I have been working as a manager and CTO in the US for a long time, and now I am back as a developer. Of course, planning and system design are also required, but as an engineer, development is the most fun way. Starting with SAP, ABAP, JAVA, Oracle, now PHP, Python, React... Starting with ERP, education system, university management, and now POS & Apps. If I get some time, would I like to make a free POS or open source POS? Ha ha ha
