Frequently asked questions, answered
What’s the best debit machine for my business?
How do I set up my payment terminal?
Your terminal arrives pre-configured, and an activation specialist will guide you through setup. It’s as simple as unboxing, powering on, and connecting to Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
Can I use a debit machine without a contract?
What is the difference between a payment gateway and a payment processor?
A payment processor facilitates transactions by moving funds between the customer and the merchant’s bank. A payment gateway is a secure technology that authorizes online transactions. Paystone offers payment processing and online payment solutions, so businesses can easily accept payments online, in-person, or remotely.
What are the fees for payment processing?
Processing fees vary depending on the provider and the type of transaction. Paystone offers competitive, transparent rates with no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
Our transaction fees include the interchange fees charged by the issuing bank, the card brand fees (Visa, Mastercard, etc.), and the acquiring bank fees, plus a small markup from Paystone. Your final rate depends on factors like processing volume, payment method, and card type.
How quickly will I receive my funds?
With Paystone, you get next-business-day deposits, ensuring your cash flow stays steady. Unlike some payment processing platforms, we don’t hold funds unnecessarily or delay payouts.
Can I use Paystone to accept payments online?
Yes! Paystone’s online payment processing solutions let you accept payments through your website, virtual terminal, hosted payment pages, or recurring billing. Whether you’re running an eCommerce business or invoicing clients, we make online transactions seamless.
What makes Paystone different from other payment processing companies in Canada?
Paystone is Canada’s largest bank-independent payment processor with no contracts, no hidden fees, and some of the most competitive rates in the industry. With 30,000+ customers using Paystone services and over $10 billion processed annually, businesses choose us for our fast deposits, transparent pricing, and best-in-class customer support.
