What’s a Merchant Account Anyway?
A merchant account is a special type of bank account that lets businesses accept credit and debit card payments. It sounds fancy, but getting one set up usually involves:
- A long application process
- Credit checks
- Waiting days (or weeks!) for approval
- Monthly fees
- Hidden charges
Basically, it’s a hassle. Especially for freelancers, startups, or anyone just trying to keep their hustle alive.

Run Payroll on a Credit Card? Yep—You Can Do That Too

You don’t need to have the money in your account right now. You’re basically using your card as a bridge until your cash flow catches up.
Get Tax Breaks
When you run payroll (or any business expense) through your credit card, you could be lining yourself up for some real tax perks.
- Tax-Deductible Fees: That standard 2.90% processing fee? You can file it as a tax-deductible business expense, which helps you recoup some of the costs come tax season.
- Additional Tax Breaks: Depending on your state, jurisdiction, and current tax codes, you might qualify for even more tax breaks just by using your credit card for eligible business payments.
Score Cashback and Rewards
The platform helps you earn credit card rewards and cashback by running your transactions—like payroll, vendor payments, suppliers, etc., directly through your credit card.
