Merchants: What Billing Model Works Best For You?

Epoch offers flexible billing models designed to optimize your online business.  Since 1996, Epoch  has specialized in subscription or membership billing and we are certified by the major card brands and compliant with all Payment Card Industry (PCI) requirements.

What billing model works best for you? 


One Time Billing
Sometimes called "single shot" billing, you may charge your customers a one time fee for a product or service from your website.   

Automated Recurring Billing (ARB)
Recurring billing is significantly more challenging than processing one-time payments.  It has been our specialty since 1996.  This type of billing is used for subscription and membership based sites.  We make it easy to automate your entire subscription process. 
 
Per Unit Billing
For those merchants using unit software to sell content from your site such using minutes or credits, we can accommodate any type of unit you need to bill for.  Great for games, mobile apps or any virtual item that works best in this billing model. 

One Click Billing
The one click billing method enables you to make offers to your existing or returning customers. Your customers are not required to re-enter their payment information to make additional purchases, thus, streamlining add-on sales.

Epoch: Your online cash register for worldwide billing

If you are selling digital content or online services and need an Internet Payment Service Provider (IPSP), we have an established, comprehensive solution for you.  

There are many aspects to an online business, but ultimately once you've established your site and created your product or service, you need a means to accept payments.  Ideally you want a solution that helps you maximize revenue, relieves the most stress, enables you to focus on building your business, provides longevity, has flexibility, and excellent support.

The Benefits of Using Epoch's Payment Services

• Epoch enables your online business to accept a lot more payment types than you could with your own merchant account.  Currently we are accepting over 40 payment types.  Depending on how much international traffic you have, alternative payment types can increase sales as much as 10% to 20%. 
• Using an IPSP which has an enormous database of fraud information and analysis to protect your account provides a considerable advantage.  The vast amount of merchants we process for helps us identify and block all types of "friendly fraud" and deliberate fraud, and includes protection from fraudulent affiliates.
• By using an IPSP you shift the risks of a personal merchant account in a high risk merchant category to an established IPSP who specializes in this unique type of processing.
• An expert risk management team monitors your sales to ensure you remain within card association thresholds with regard to credits and chargebacks, domestic and foreign.
• Epoch provides 24/7/365 support to your customers in virtually every language by phone, chat, and email.
• Epoch provides its clients with cutting edge payment forms and other features such as our latest release, Logo GPS.  Our Smart Payment Forms are custom generated for each transaction and address each customer in their language, the currency of their location, and with payment options popular in their region.
• Epoch does not charge any type of reserve withholding or security deposit.  Other IPSPs do.  With Epoch, you keep more of your money from day one.
• You don't need to have perfect credit to use an IPSP.
• You have a personal account representative that you can contact with any questions you may have regarding your account.
• Epoch provides 24/7/365 technical support should you have a problem you need to discuss with a technician or have any billing issues.
