  • $29 Annual Fee (billed 6 months after you begin processing)

Please let me know if you have any questions Richard!! We specialize in service and that is why you have been referred to us by both of the institutions that you are considering- please let me know if you have any other questions that I can help you with!!

Innovative Merchant Solutions

This is an Intuit company (or one that was swallowed up by Intuit) that has visited us in the past.

Samantha Witter from Intuit-IMS stopped by. We talked some shop and this is what we came up with.

We can use our own Machines, no need to buy. While our average transaction stays under $25 our rate is:

  • Rate: 1.73%
  • Transaction Fee: $0.10
  • Monthly Fee: $7.50
  • Batch Fee: $0.25
  • Startup Fee: $12.50

This would be for accepting MasterCard and Visa only.

What we need for the application:

  1. 501(c)(3) form
  2. articles of incorporation
  3. Voided check

The person that signs the application should have good credit. The organization will be held responsible for any mishaps, not the signer.
