FAQ: Can I accept credit card payments in my Booth?

Posted by on 20 Nov 2008 at 9:21 am under FAQs

Yes. If you want to start accepting credit cards, we recommend opening a PayPal merchant account. There’s no setup fee or credit check. All you need is a current checking account into which deposits can be made. As purchases are made, PayPal deducts its commission and puts the rest in your account, which you can have transferred to your checking account at any time.

Once your PayPal account is established (2-3 days), we’ll be able to add payment links to your Booth.

Kona Coffee is only grown in Hawaii — on the Big Island — where six hundred farmers grow, hand-pick and sun-dry the entire coffee harvest. The best way for mainlanders, or anyone living off the island, to enjoy fresh, pure 100% Kona Coffee is to purchase it direct from the grower via mailorder.

Visit the Kona Coffee Booth of the Hubbard & Sons Coffee Company in Holualoa, Hawaii, to select from

16oz Superior Premium 100% Kona Coffee for $23.95
16oz Ultimate Peaberry 100% Kona Coffee for $28.95
16oz Premier Estate Prime 100% Kona Coffee for $19.95
shipping costs are included in the prices.
