Accepting Cards for Nutraceutical Purchases
A nutraceutical is a food or dietary supplement that provides health benefits. Selling these products often leads to higher processing fees or rejections from traditional merchant service providers.
At 5 Star Processing, our pharmacy merchant accounts are specially equipped for these transactions. We work with vitamins, supplements, CBD oils, specialty medications, and more. Our experts will ensure your account is set up to seamlessly process nutraceutical sales.
Omnichannel Processing for All Payment Environments
Today's pharmacies interact with customers across many environments:
Physical retail locations
eCommerce stores
Mobile apps
Online prescription refills
Telehealth consultations
Phone/mail orders
Our pharmacy merchant accounts support omnichannel processing so you can accept payments however your customers engage with you. We'll get you set up with seamless integrations for in-person POS systems like Clover, online platforms like WooCommerce, and over-the-phone processing.
PCI Compliance Included
PCI compliance is a set of data security standards required for all merchants accepting card payments. We handle PCI compliance for you - our team will walk you through any requirements, questionnaires, and audits. This protects your pharmacy from liability and keeps your customer's data secure.
