It\u2019s worth considering, too, whether you accept a wide enough variety of cards; and not just for your existing customers, but for your target market as well. For example, American Express says that its UK Cardmembers spend, on average, over 3 times more each year than customers of other card providers.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Image: Finder\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/Amex-branded-content-merchant-services-1200-%C3%97-628px.png\" alt=\"Growing your business from pop-up to profit\" class=\"size-full wp-image-294575 aligncenter\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p><h3>2.
