Switching

We plan the switch
before anything changes.

The fear is not changing processors. It is losing a busy day because the change goes sideways. We plan the account, equipment, deposits and timing before the switch begins.

  1. Start with how you get paid

    We learn how payments move through your business, what cannot go down and what you want to improve. If pricing is part of the problem, we review the statement line by line.

  2. Confirm approval and pricing

    Underwriting usually takes 24 to 48 hours. We tell you early if the account needs more review and confirm the pricing before anything changes.

  3. Configure before delivery

    When new equipment is needed, it arrives set up with the users, items, menus, modifiers and tax rules the system supports.

  4. Test before cutover

    When the setup allows it, we run the new system alongside the old one until payments, deposits and daily workflows are working as expected.

  5. Time the old account correctly

    We explain any remaining obligations and help you avoid closing the old account before the new deposits are settling as expected.

  6. Stay after launch

    You keep a named contact and 24/7 US based support after the install, not just before it.

Still under contract? Send us the agreement. Sometimes the smartest move is to wait, and we will tell you that.

Straight answers

Ask these before you
choose a processor.

Three answers that tell you more than the biggest number on the proposal.

Add every processing fee on the statement and divide that total by the card volume for the same month. That percentage is your effective rate. It shows what you actually paid, not just the rate that was quoted.
Yes. A low markup can sit beside monthly fees, annual charges, PCI non-compliance fees or an equipment lease. Compare the full monthly cost, contract terms, funding and support, not one number on the proposal.
We review high-risk businesses case by case. Approval depends on what you sell, how you sell it, processing history, chargebacks and underwriting requirements. Tell us what the business does and we will give you a straight answer before you spend time on an application.
