Virtual Terminal -- Access by Cell Phone

I'm a health care provider who moves among several offices but I don't have a computer with me only a cell phone with a web browser.   Is it possible to access my virtual terminal account via a web browser on a cell phone and make transactions?

This is a great question. I have the same issue. Has anyone gotten a reply to this inquiry?

At the present time what you want to do is not supported.

 

As an alternative, I would recomment taking a different approach.  Check out your local bank and see what they have to offer in Merchant Accounts.  You may be surprised.  PayPal is not a one size solution for everyone.  For example, we vend at events and outdoor markets through out the the Colorado high country during the summer.   We were able to setup a Merchant Account though our local bank.  They suggested using a wireless credit card terminal.  This unit is amazing as it works anywhere our cell phones work.  The wireless terminal allows you to swipe the card on site.  The unit makes the call to the bank, gets instant authorization, stores the data and prints receipts.  It's a no brainer process and the costs are smilar to Virtural Terminal.   Do your homework, it's well worth the time.

 

And yes, we still use PayPal for our website online orders.  You get the best of both.
