Image: https://pressreleasejet.com/newsreleases/images/2015/square-reader-wells-fargo-costco-and-chase.jpg

DALLAS, TX – 18 Sep, 2015 – Merchant Resources compares its credit card merchant services to those of Square Reader, Wells Fargo Merchant Services, Chase Merchant Services and Costco Merchant Services.

After Merchant Resources called the 1-800 listed on each of these merchant services, a variety of differences and cost of each of these credit card merchant services have been discovered. The compilation below:

Square Reader*

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 2.75% • Key Entered Rate of 3.5%

* The square reader is a good solution for merchants that are seasonal, since “SquareUp” does not have any monthly fees. However, any merchant that is consistently over $100 in Visa/MasterCard volume per month, there are better options.

Wells Fargo**

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.8% • Lease of terminal for $35 a month or purchase terminal for $500 • $75 yearly fee

** Merchant Resources has been in the business for over 20 years, knowing “for a fact” that the rate, no matter what the card is, is NOT 1.8%. It seems Wells Fargo has to train their merchant services department what the actual fees are.

Costco

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.38% and 19 cents • Rewards Cards Visa/MC rate of 1.99% and 19 cents • Business Cards Visa/MC rate of 2.65% and 29 cents • Foreign and Government Cards Visa/MC 3.55% and 29 cents • Lease of terminal for $30 a month for 2 years or purchase terminal for $489 • Need to be an executive Costco member, so you need to pay $110 a year

Chase Paymentech

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.99% and 25 cents • Mid qualified rate of 2.68% and 25 cents • Non qualified rate of 3.76% and 25 cents • $100 fee to get setup • $25 monthly minimum • Monthly fee of $9.95 • Free terminal with a 2 year contract

Merchant Resources offers the following:

• 1.25% for debit/credit card with no pin • 1.65% for base Visa and MasterCard, Discover • No Monthly Fees • FREE EMV Terminal with Pin Pad, Swiper for your cellular phone, or POS for restaurant

John Rowley Reveals How The E-Factor Diet System Helps Women & Men Consistently Burn Fat

The E-Factor Diet shows women and men how eating the same foods their eating now, just at different times can consistently burn fat and lose weight.

Columbus, United States – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

E-Factor Diet is a brand new fitness and diet program being released for women and men this weekend on Sept 19th from best selling author and fitness professional John Rowley. The E-Factor Diet focuses on educating people on the effects different foods including healthy ones have on the human body which include bloating, weight gain & inflammation. E-Factor Diet shows individuals the proper times to eat food to get maximum fat-burning and weight loss. The foundation and core of the program is that the times people eat meals plays a huge role in how the body burns fat or stores fat.

Eating the right foods at the wrong time can have a horrible effect on the body according to E-Factor Diet.
An individual could end up gaining weight even though everything else is being done correctly. In addition, most foods including common healthy ones can trigger a histamine like response within the body. Similar to the effects of being stung by a bee. The body can then become bloated and swell up. An individual can also experience lack of energy, weight gain and many more problems associated with this effect.

Click Here To Visit The Official E-Factor Diet Website & Discover The 4 Factors of Losing Weight

John Rowley, author of Old School New Body spent the last couple of years researching why the majority of people couldn’t get rid of stubborn body fat even though everything was being done correctly. John discovered that in all of these cases people were breaking the 4 factors of weight loss which are critical to achieving fat-burning and weight loss success. John Rowley also noticed that in all of these cases the body was having a histamine like response to foods that were being eating.

E-Factor Diet counters these effects which then allows the body to behave normally to the foods and trigger healthy, natural weight loss including stubborn areas of fat including the stomach, hips, thighs and more. The biggest problems with conventional diets is that the weight loss program/diet is complicated and requires some massive lifestyle changes. John Rowley, author of E-Factor Diet believes that the best approach for a diet and weight loss program is one that is easy to implement, simple and doesn’t require a massive lifestyle change.

Individuals who purchase the program get a grocery guide which explains exactly what to eat, avoid and pick up from the store, the meal planning blueprint which keeps everything in order. The core of the diet is the actual E-Factor Diet manua which contains all the step by step instructions.

The E-Factor Diet also provides a number of bonuses that come with the program for free such as a fast food guide. The fast food guide allows individuals to know what can and can’t be eaten from different fast food places. A guide on how to increase energy levels which plays a big role in weight loss is also included. Efactor Diet also comes with a support network so individuals can ask questions and get help.

Why The Most Common Causes For Fatal Car Accidents Are Distracted Drivers

After years of decline, data shows a sudden spike in car crash fatalities in 2015. With speeding, intoxication, and cell phone use ranking amount the top culprits, some call for better education, laws and enforcement.

Orange County California, United States – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

There is a new epidemic in town and according to a report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), it has left 3,154 people dead and 424,000 injured. The culprit? Distracted drivers.

According to the NHTSA and the National Safety Council (NSC), 2015 is shaping up to register the most car-related deaths in the U.S. since 2007. NHTSA reports auto accident deaths jumped 9.5% in the first three months of 2015; and NSC says there has been a 14% increase in the first six months of the year.

After years of decline, the spike of auto accident-related deaths is a troubling; and though official conclusions have not been published, experts agree that one of the most common causes for fatal car accidents are distracted drivers.

Distracted driving occurs when drivers look away from the road, take their hands off the wheel, or focus on non-driving tasks. Unfortunately, drivers engage in non-driving tasks during more than half of the time they spend driving and it costs the U.S. nearly $40 billion every year.[1]

Classic distracted driving behaviors used to include eating or talking to other passengers, but more recently, far more distracting practices such as texting, checking email, watching videos, and replying to Facebook posts have become common. Driver distractions have joined alcohol and speeding as leading factors in fatal and serious injury car crashes, with texting being the most dangerous. And with a more robust economy and cheaper fuel prices, more people are driving and, as a result, more drivers and passengers are exposed to the results of others’ bad decisions behind the wheel.

Although most people believe they can consistently perform other tasks while driving, researchers agree that multi-tasking is a myth, and that the human brain can only fully concentrate on one cognitively challenging task at a time. Performing more than one such task requires the brain to quickly switch back and forth between the activities, thus not allowing the brain to fully engage in either task. In fact NHTSA has observed that, when drivers who use cell phones watch the road, they still fail to see up to half of their driving environment.

In spite of the fact that 40 states currently ban texting and driving, many drivers still text while behind the wheel.

Police say that these activities are often difficult to detect, and law enforcement agencies are working to change that. In many instances, state and federal agencies are providing funding to implement programs that will aid law enforcement to crack down on texting drivers. Authorities are using big-rig drivers to help identify drivers who are texting while driving. The technology allows them to have a bird’s-eye view of what drivers are doing, and once spotted, state troopers are called to pull over irresponsible drivers.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Commission is also working with towns nationwide to experiment with various high-visibility enforcement measures. For instance, individuals called “spotters” may be hired to stand where they can see vehicles approaching and then report unlawful texting to officers who then issue citations.

Automakers, regulators, and safety experts are also trying to utilize technology to prevent accidents. For instance, automakers have collaborated with parts manufacturers to introduce technology that minimizes the distractions of car-based telephony such as voice controls and, most recently, BMW’s “gesture control.” Heads-up displays are also being developed to project information holographically in front of drivers so they need not to look away to check the speed, directions, or which song is playing on the radio. Recent automotive research suggests that such technologies can help otherwise distracted drivers pay more attention to road conditions.

The increased connectivity recently enabled by new cell phone technology has resulted in dangerous conditions for drivers. Unfortunately, while the public is aware of the risks associated with distracted driving, data shows the behavior continues. NSC officials believe a combination of better education, laws, and enforcement will make roads safer for everyone.

Drivers must be aware that making a phone call or texting while driving is not worth what happens after a car accident. However, if the unfortunate happens, a car accident lawyer can be of tremendous help to individuals wondering what to do next.

BulbsDepot.com, the leader in high efficiency lighting products online, today announced the extension of the company’s Labor Day Sale featuring LED light bulbs. The company has been thrilled by the acceptance of the new high efficiency lighting line of products by their customer base.

“We have been thrilled to offer this extensive line of LED products to our customer base but only had a limited time to offer them at the Labor Day Sale pricing. Our suppliers realized what a nice offering we have been providing to our customers, also enjoyed the lift in sales from the products and offered to extend the special pricing to us for another 10 days”, said Bill DeCamp, President of BulbsDepot.com.

Mr. DeCamp continued, “Customers replacing fluorescent tubes and traditional lighting receive a return on their initial investment in as short as seven months. LED bulbs will run for 50,000 hours and contain a five year warranty. This high return on investment makes replacement lighting economically feasible for any company in any location.”
