You’ll be redirected to our secure application to finish signup — identity and bank verification happen there.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

How is flat rate different from surcharging or dual pricing?
Flat rate bakes the cost of card acceptance into a single, predictable rate you pay as the merchant — nothing is passed to the customer. It's the simplest program to understand, though merchants who want to eliminate processing costs entirely typically save more with surcharging or dual pricing.
Is 2.5% + $0.15 the rate for every card?
Yes — one flat rate applies across card types, with no downgrade fees or tiered pricing surprises.
Are there other fees?
No monthly statement fee, no PCI compliance fee, and no hidden downgrades. You pay the flat rate per transaction and nothing else.
How do I sign up?
The application is fully self-service through our secure portal — apply any time, day or night. If you'd rather talk it through first, our team can also apply on your behalf.
