I've been working on a new e-store
www.cannabishardware.com . I'm looking to diversify from the vape stigma, magento developers, swift network, and simplify the process of explaining to others what we do. Please don't be concerned about the future of NewVape, it's not going anywhere anytime soon. Neither is the fraud and banking frustrations that we are experiencing within the cannabis banking industry. Instead of just raising the prices to amortize those losses and punish the honest people, I'm going to follow alibaba's lead and try not accepting credit cards. The payment method on the new store is based around ACH payments, echeck, international debit cards, venmo, etc.. which is basically a modern day traveler's check wire transfer between our two banks. The commission fees are much less and the transactions are much less risky to friendly fraud. ACH style payments require you to
enter your routing, and account numbers during the checkout process. These forms of electronic payments are often used when you pay your monthly utility bills. Unfortunately, your going to need to have the money on hand before you place your order. Friendly fraud is the devil in our industry and until the banking industry embraces the cannabis industry it's not going away. I'm reminded every time I visit the dispensaries they don't accept credit cards I must remember to bring cash. It's important to our company's longevity that we spend less time dealing with theft, more time on sales , marketing, and innovation (the fun stuff). For the brave soles that are willing to be the first to shop in my new store i'll be running a 20% coupon code "lighthouse" for 2 weeks. Please take into consideration that the electronic payment will require 3-4 business days to post in our bank before the order can ship. Regardless of the shipping choice made at time of checkout. My plan is to keep this store more simple, less intimidating to newbies, and not bring all the legacy products over. I'm anxious to hear what your thoughts are? Thanks ~Edwyn
