Sign-up special

Join for $99. Add your volume to the pool.

One business, one payment, for 12 months. Two questions below are the ones that really matter: what you turn over on card, and what you pay for it now. That is what we take to market.

Your business

Business name

Your name

Phone

What you trade in

Website (optional)

Your card payments

This is the part that builds the group rate. Rough numbers are fine. If you do not know, say so and we will work it out with you.

Who takes your card payments now

Roughly what you put through on card a year

What rate you pay now (if you know it)

Send me the address to email one recent merchant statement, so you can work out my real blended rate. Most people have never seen theirs.

Anything you want the network to know (optional)

Your turnover and your rate go into one combined district total and nothing else. We never show another member your numbers, and we never give an acquirer your figures on their own. We do not sell or pass on the member list.

What happens next

You are in the pool from day one.

You pay the $99. Your card volume goes into the district total, and we come back to you with what your current rate actually is.

When the pool is big enough we put that one combined number in front of the acquirers and ask them to bid. Whatever comes back, we publish it to members. Then it is your call whether you move.
