MEMBER REWARDS

---

FOLA has partnered with Merchant-Accounts.ca as part of our Member Rewards Program to make it easier to collect payments.

This allows Ontario Lawyers to collect credit card payments online and by phone.  The system has no setup fees, requires no technical work to create or set up, and can be used without changing the way you currently invoice your customers today.  

No Upfront Costs, No Monthly Costs!

You get an online payment page where customers can submit payment for outstanding invoices. 

Each time a payment is received an email notification is generated and sent to you and the customer.  Funds are deposited directly into your bank account (or account in trust if that's how you wish to configure your account).  An example of the system can be seen HERE.  And you can watch a walkthrough HERE.

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

Merchant-Accounts.ca will be dedicating 20% of net revenue proceeds earned from FOLA members to local community organizations and FOLA-sponsored charities.  

ABOUT MERCHANT ACCOUNTS  

Merchant-Accounts.ca has been in operation for over 20 years, and is one of Canada's longest established providers of credit card processing.   With an expertise in card-not-present payments, they are able to help you collect payments online or by phone, in Canadian dollars, US dollars, or any foreign currency. 

Deals can get chaotic. Between all the documents, versions and signature pages, we understand that there is a lot to keep track of. And spending time on administrative tasks takes you away from what really matters—providing value to your clients.

dealcloser.com automates or eliminates those redundant, non-value-added tasks on a deal that are often a common source of error. We support you so that you can execute your deals flawlessly!
