We are hired to negotiate, audit, and optimize credit card processing fees for our clients without them switching or changing their current processor or software system. We are NOT a credit card processor or provider but an advocate to help businesses ensure they can negotiate the lowest cost with their existing vendor.

How It Works:

1. After negotiations and pricing is finalized with your merchant service company, we receive your monthly statements, run our analysis, and send a report for the amount we saved that given month. We audit these merchant statements monthly to protect our clients against hidden fee spikes, increasing rates, or miscellaneous fees that are added to merchant accounts.

2. It breaks down what the business paid previously to leveraging our services vs. the new pricing we obtained, and the total amount of savings we achieved.

3. Our firm makes money ONLY by sharing the savings we obtain from our clients. If no savings are obtained, there is nothing owed to us.

4. NO upfront costs, NO hourly consulting fees, NO risk to your business, NO need to switch providers.
