We also periodically check in with customers and work with them to correct any deficiencies before they lead to a potentially catastrophic data breach or a permanent ban on accepting credit cards.

    Yes. As a new partner, you are given a price protection guarantee for the life of our commitment to you. 


Just for Merchants


  • What is my MID?

    You can find your MID (Merchant Identification Number) on the side of your physical terminal or on your monthly statements. 

  • Where do I get my statements?

    If desired, your statements are mailed to you each month at the address determined during your onboarding and are also available instantly on your processor’s direct portal. Very shortly, you’ll be able to pull your monthly statements from Orange Sock’s exclusive portal! Details coming soon for this new functionality!

  • When do the statements come out each month?

    Statements will come out the first week of each month.

  • When will my batches be funded to my bank account?

    If your account has been approved for Next Day funding, you receive your batch funds in your bank account the next day. If you are not approved for Next Day Funding, then you will receive batch funds the following business day. Holidays and some bank restrictions can also affect the batch times into your bank account. 

  • Who do I call for help with my terminal?

    There is a support number on the side of your terminal for technical support - this is the best number to call for terminal issues. If your terminal does not have number, your support number can also be found on your merchant processing statement. Clover hardware comes with ‘touch button’ support where you can tap and have a Clover service rep contact you at the number you’ve selected within seconds. 

  • How do I look at my transactions?

    You can find in-depth information for the month prior on your merchant statement. You can also sign in to your processor's portal to view daily reporting that you have full access to for your merchant account.

  • Who do I call after hours?

    You are able to contact the processor directly if you have questions/concerns with your merchant account. They are available 24/7. Your processor support number is located on your merchant statement. 

  • What is PCI and how do I become PCI compliant?

    PCI stands for Payment Card Industry (Visa/MC/Disc). They have a set of standards to abide by to ensure that merchants are processing Credit cards in a safe manner. To be PCI compliant also ensures safe harbour for the merchant in the case of a breach. Safe Harbour is what keeps you out of risk, should a breach occur and allows your commercial liability cyber policy to cover the damages and fines stemming from the breach. 

  • What is a fallback transaction?

    A fallback transaction is determined when a chip (EMV) transaction does not work on the physical terminal and is defaulted to the credit card being swiped or key entered. 

  • Who do I call if my credit card machine is not working?

    You can reach us at (855) 328-8150 or you may contact the processor at the number on your merchant statement. 

  • Why was my customer's credit card declined?

    There are many reasons why a card can be declined, such as not enough funds at the cardholder's bank or an incorrect number/expiration date was entered. You can usually see the “decline reason” on the transaction receipt. If you need assistance with a strange decline code please contact terminal support immediately at the number listed on your merchant statement. 

  • My transaction receipts are showing the wrong information. Who can I call?

    Orange Sock is glad to help with these account discrepancies. You can reach a live agent at (855) 328-8150.
