How it works

One call. One form. One approval.

Most processors make you fill out the same application five times while a sales rep guesses at your rates. We run it once, properly, with the bank that will actually say yes.

The process

From "declined" to depositing, in four stops.

The rail below is the actual sequence — no hidden steps, no "we'll get back to you." You can start at the call or start at the form; both end in the same place.

01
Today · 15 minutes

Book a call with underwriting

A real underwriter — not a sales script. We tell you on the call if we can place you, and at roughly what rate.

02
Same day · ~10 minutes

One application, shaped to the right bank

You fill it once. We package it for the acquiring bank most likely to approve your specific vertical and history.

03
24–48 hours

Underwriting & placement

Real files, real humans. Terminated before? MATCH-listed? That changes the routing, not the outcome.

04
This week

You're live

Gateway keys, terminal, or invoicing — set up and processing, with next-day funding on most accounts.

Where the money goes

Every basis point, accounted for.

Most processors hide their margin inside a "simple" rate. We price interchange-plus and show you the split — because you can't negotiate what you can't see.

~1.8%
Interchange — the card networks' cut. Fixed. Nobody can discount it; anyone who says otherwise is hiding it in your rate.
+1.15%
Our margin, quoted plainly at signup. High-risk verticals pay more than low-risk — but you'll always know exactly how much.
T+1
Settlement to your account next business day on most accounts. Reserves only where an acquiring bank requires them — with a written release schedule.
