What we do is fundamentally different for several reasons:
1) Representation: The most essential difference is that we represent the merchant with a singular goal: to get their fees as low as possible! In contrast, processors prioritize their own interests and aim to make as much money on the merchant as possible.
2) Experience: Our team has over 100 years of combined experience. We don’t just analyze fees; we take a holistic approach to find the best solutions on the market, lowering costs and making processing easier. Many sales representatives have less than five years of experience and often lack a deep understanding of interchange complexities or IT knowledge. More importantly, they can only sell their own services. A processor would never recommend a gateway or service that another processor offers. Instead, they are forced to sell you their product whether it is the best solution or not. Again, putting their interests first.
3) No Contracts: We ensure our clients are never locked into contracts with us or any processor or gateway. Credit card processors often try to bind merchants with contracts, but we believe in offering freedom and flexibility.
