Chris, I apologize for the delay. You're right, the $20 is for wireless. Thanks!

Hi,
The $20. monthly fee was for a wireless terminal and that’s what I need as a DJ. If it is $20. , really not too bad for wireless. Maybe I’m mistaken? please see link.

Thanks

The Quantum Gateway would be CDGcommerce' equivalent of Authorize.Net. It's their own in-house payment gateway, which they offer for free.

Thanks for the comment Chris, I appreciate your insight. I agree with you that “free” is not the best word to be using in this situation, but I think that detail is minor considering the upside to this company.

Btw, can you tell me where you found the $20/month? I only see a $10/month merchant fee. I hope I’m not missing it somewhere.

In regards to the other regular fees that they charge, I have to say that they are much lower than other companies that I’ve reviewed.

No annual fee.
No setup fee.
No monthly minimum.
No contract.
No cancellation fee.
No payment gateway fee.
No AVS fee.

That’s hard to beat!

You should take another look at CDG Commerce. They offer a "free" wireless terminal but require a $79.00 PER YEAR replacement fee + $20.00 monthly fee in addition to other regular fees. Not sure your rating of them is accurate. But still, thanks for the great website! Thanks. Chris

I had a terrible experience with this company. These guys are discriminative, xenophobic and not man enough to come out and say it. I'm a US citizen with a US bank account living and operating a business in the US for a US audience. After I fulfilled all their requirements with flying colors they denied my application because I was born in a foreign country. They kept claiming that my domain name is registered under a non-US address, which is simply not true. The truth is they are suspicious of me because my name sounds foreign to them and they're not open minded enough to admit that they think of immigrants as second class citizens. CDG Commerce prides itself on being American but their prejudice, xenophobia and dishonesty is distinctively anti-American. Boycott them: say no to hatred and discrimination.

I too do not recommend CDG Commerce. After the extensive application (see my first entry). I was denied because my business has foreign customers. Like the entry above, I too have perfect credit. It really is not so much their company that's bad, but their bank. As stated in a recent email from them, it was because their bank is VERY CONSERVATIVE. They really should have let their applicants know that ahead of time, instead of wasting our time filing for an application that may have a potential in being denied. I am so disappointed in CDG Commerce and if you have foreign customers, I DO NOT recommend using them!
