We collect the information you choose to submit through the forms on this website.

The contact form collects first name, last name, business name, email address, phone number, and your message. The referral form collects your name, email address and phone number, plus the name, contact name, phone number and email address of the business you are referring.
We do not collect your city, state, ZIP code, date of birth, Social Security number, or any government-issued identification number through this website.
We also automatically receive standard technical information when you visit, including IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and pages viewed.
02How information is used
Information is used to respond to your inquiry and prepare a complimentary proposal; to communicate with you by phone, email and text about payment-processing solutions you asked about; to administer the referral program and calculate referral commissions; and to maintain internal records and improve this website.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.
03Form and calculator data
The effective rate calculator runs entirely in your browser. Values you enter into the calculator are not submitted with any form unless you retype them.
This website does not accept merchant processing statements, card numbers, or bank-account information. If a statement review is requested, a representative will contact you and arrange a separate secure method for submitting those documents. Please do not email statements or send them through any form on this site.
