Independent merchant services broker

Find out if your business is overpaying on card processing.

We help business owners review their merchant statements, identify unnecessary fees or inflated markups, and see whether there may be room to lower processing costs.

No obligation to switch providers. Even if you stay with your current processor, the review may help you better understand your statement and renegotiate from a stronger position.

A simple review before you switch, renew, or renegotiate.

Many business owners only look at their headline rate. The real cost is often spread across interchange, markups, monthly fees, equipment charges, compliance fees, and other line items.

“My goal is not to pressure you into changing processors. It’s to give you a clear view of what you’re paying and whether there’s a better setup available.”Greg Thompson

  3. 3You get the findings.
    I explain what I found and whether there appears to be an opportunity to reduce costs or improve the setup.
  4. 4You decide what to do.
    You can compare options, renegotiate with your current provider, or make no changes at all.

Common questions

A quick overview of what the review is — and what it is not.

Do I have to switch providers?

No. The review is designed to help you understand your current costs. You can stay with your current provider, renegotiate, compare options, or do nothing.

Is the review really free?

Yes. There is no fee for the initial statement review. If a better option is available, you decide whether you want to explore it.

What do you need from me?

A recent merchant processing statement is usually enough to begin. You can redact sensitive details that are not needed for the review.

Are you my current processor?

No. I am an independent merchant services broker. I am not claiming to be your current processor, your bank, Visa, Mastercard, or any card brand.
