Overview
Getting a small business card establishes an enterprise owner as a serious business. It is more than simply a coming of age; it gives the small business footing and establishes credit. It keeps the records separate from the consumer’s private life and is used for a wide range of purposes. In this Javelin report, we pull small business data to present the payment options used by businesses and illustrate different use cases. You will get a perspective on why the small business card makes sense, not just to facilitate payments, but to establish the business as a serious enterprise.
