Charge Account At Bank On Long Island
Long Island merchants partner with Franklin National Bank to offer customers charge accounts tied to the bank. A shopper buys a shirt at a participating store using a bank issued card, the bank handles bookkeeping, invoicing, and collections, and charges the merchant five percent per sale. The system mirrors department store credit but benefits small shops with bank support.
