Card fees eating your margins? Let's take a second look.

Send us one processing statement. We'll show you what you're really paying, and if it's too much, we'll get it lowered. You only pay us out of what we save you.

Check my fees

Free. No switching processors.

How it works

Three steps. You do the first one.

  1. 1

    Send a statement

    Upload your latest card processing statement below. A PDF or a clear phone photo is fine.

  2. 2

    See your real numbers

    Within two business days, we'll tell you what you pay, what you should pay, and the difference.

  3. 3

    We handle the calls

    If you want to go ahead, we deal with your processor and vendors and get the changes in writing.

What we look at

Most of it hides in plain sight.

Statements are hard to read on purpose. Small charges with official-sounding names add up to real money.

Card processing

Inflated rates, "non-qualified" surcharges, PCI and regulatory fees, terminal leases.

Phone and internet

Lines nobody uses, promo rates that quietly expired, rented equipment.

Software

Logins for people who left, two tools doing one job, monthly plans that cost more than annual.

Contracts

Auto-renewals above today's rates and cancellation fees you didn't know about.

Pricing

If we don't save you money, you don't pay.

The fee check costs nothing. If we lower your costs, we keep 35% of the savings for the first year. After that, all of it is yours.

Questions

Fair questions.

Do I have to switch processors?

Usually not. We start with the processor you already have.

Are you a processor?

No. We don't sell machines or accounts. If we ever suggest a vendor that pays us a referral fee, we'll tell you first.

What can you see on my statement?

Card sales and fees. Not your bank balance. We keep it private and delete it when you ask.

What if my rates are already fine?

Then we'll tell you that, and you'll have peace of mind for free.
