    LinkedIn is definatly the No1 site for professionals, but since you are running you own business, i would recomment to create accounts in Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest!
    I believe every bsiness should have active accounts at least in these social media

    If you're looking for people to sign up for credit card processors, then I'd actually recommend message boards. You're not looking for the masses. You're looking for entrepreneur types.

    +1. You need to know who are your customer before knowing which social media is best for your business.

    Depends on your intentions, as stated before. Google + has its place as well, tho it hasn't been mentioned yet. I've read conversion rate for Google+ is WAYY better than Facebook. Can anyone confirm this?

    LinkedIn is probably the best-know and most widely used business networking site. It has some similarities to well-known social networking sites, but there are also fundamental differences that make it much more useful for business purposes. With LinkedIn you can also create business benefits via advertising. You can create text ads similar to keyword advertising such as Adwords and text ads with a small illustration. This is a good way of creating a dialogue with key persons in your business sector and with potential and existing clients. Google loves LinkedIn, that is to say it has a high page rank and this makes it easier to come high up on Google hits on complex search terms and phrases. but Facebook is also popular social networking site for business. Facebook in particular has become a great platform for reaching current, new and potential clients. The average person is sharing content that they “Like” 60 times a month. Facebook, if you used correctly by a business, can provide a wonderful opportunity to let your brand go viral, reap the benefits of personal referrals, increase brand/business awareness, and provide a medium for customer feedback.

    Surprise that most people choosing linkedin. Ofcourse might be more near to your target market while it contain lot of active users that already work and even some are professional . And with their income usually entitle to register for the credit card.
    I saw lot of local bank pushing hard on Facebook , I think it not bad as well while i actually click on it to find out what the credit card benefit after register.

    LinkedIn is #1 social networking plateform for purely professionals, although facebook has got #1 possition in relation to geting traffic but there are several factors that easily mix up your professional life with your private life. If we contribute this thread with the LinkedIn then there is no doubt.
