If I become a credit card merchant how will that help my profit if I have to pay a processing fee for every sale?
It is true that you have to pay a processing on sales made using a credit card if you are a merchant. However, the processing fee is small and it guarantees you that the credit card will be honored and is good. What you also need to take into consideration is that if you didn't have a merchant account to take credit cards you wouldn't have a sale to pay a processing fee on.
These fees are small and they guarantee you that you will get your money so they save you the hassle of having to chase money in the future. The money you have to worry about is the money from sales that you are losing because you don't accept credit cards at your business.
