In their words

Owners who made the switch

My bill jumped three hundred dollars one month with zero explanation. Alex read my statement line by line and showed me exactly where the markup was hiding. I am paying less now and I finally understand my own rate.

Linda R.

Full-service restaurant owner

I thought I was paying around 1.7 percent. Turned out it was closer to 3. He did not sugarcoat it, he just showed me the math. Switching paid for itself in the first month.

Devon P.

Coffee shop, two locations

He told me I should stay where I was for now because switching would not save me enough yet. Who does that? That honesty is exactly why I will call him first when I open my second chair.

Salon and spa owner

Common questions

The questions owners ask first

How do I calculate my real effective rate from my statement?

Take the total fees you paid for the month and divide by your total card volume. That percentage is your true effective rate, and it is usually higher than the rate you were quoted. Send your statement and I will calculate it with you and show you exactly where the gap comes from.

What does the free statement review actually cost me?

Nothing. You send your most recent statement, I read it and show you your true rate, and if switching would not save you money I will tell you to stay put. It costs nothing either way and there is no obligation.

Interchange-plus versus flat rate. At what volume do I save by switching?

Flat rate is often fine under about five thousand dollars a month. Interchange-plus usually wins decisively above roughly ten to twenty thousand a month because you pay true cost plus a small fixed markup instead of one blended rate. The crossover depends on your card mix, which is exactly what the statement review pinpoints.
