Remote Billing involves processing payments for customers who are not physically present at your location. This encompasses sending digital invoices, using payment links, or taking card details over the phone (Virtual Terminal) to settle a bill.
FAQs:
- Is remote billing riskier than in-person payments?
Yes, because you cannot inspect the physical card or check ID, making it harder to prove the person paying is the card owner. - What tools do I need for remote billing?
A virtual terminal app, an invoicing system, or a way to generate payment links. - How can I reduce fraud in remote billing?
Use AVS (Address Verification Service) and CVC checks to ensure the person knows the billing address and security code of the card.
