That’s exactly why Upper Marlboro businesses choose us. We design payment processing systems that work for your bottom line, not against it. No hidden fees. No surprise charges. No contracts that trap you for years.
When your payment processing actually supports your business instead of draining it, you can focus on what matters: serving your customers and growing your revenue. Simple as that.
We’ve been serving Maryland businesses from our Annapolis headquarters for over 15 years. We understand Upper Marlboro’s business landscape because we’re part of it.
Our team of 30+ dedicated professionals knows what local businesses face. Whether you’re dealing with seasonal rushes like the Dutch Village Farmers Market or need reliable processing for your retail shop, we’ve got the experience to handle it.
As a registered ISO of PNC Bank, we bring you the security of FDIC backing with the personal service of a local Maryland company. That means you get enterprise-level processing power with the attention your business deserves.
First, we evaluate your specific business situation. No cookie-cutter solutions here. We look at your transaction volume, average ticket size, and business type to design a processing approach that fits.
Next, we install tomorrow’s technology today. Whether you need countertop terminals, wireless solutions, or mobile processing, we set up equipment that grows with your business. Everything integrates seamlessly with your existing operations.
Finally, you start processing with transparent rates and 24/7 support. No surprises on your statement. No hidden fees. Just reliable processing that works when you need it, backed by real people who answer when you call.
Ready to get started?
Your Upper Marlboro business gets access to everything you need to accept payments efficiently. Credit and debit card processing, electronic check acceptance, and gift card programs that drive repeat business.
Mobile payment solutions let you take payments anywhere in Upper Marlboro. Perfect for businesses that serve customers at farmers markets, events, or on-location services. Your smartphone becomes a complete payment terminal.
Point of sale systems that handle more than just payments. Track inventory, manage employees, and generate reports that help you understand your business better. Everything works together so you can focus on serving customers, not managing multiple systems.
Processing fees vary based on your business type, transaction volume, and average ticket size. Most Upper Marlboro businesses see rates between 1.5% to 3.5% per transaction, plus small per-transaction fees.
The key is understanding what you’re actually paying. Many processors hide costs in “qualified,” “mid-qualified,” and “non-qualified” rate structures that can double your effective rate. We use transparent interchange-plus pricing so you know exactly what each transaction costs.
Maryland law caps early termination fees at $500 for small businesses, but we don’t lock you into long-term contracts anyway. You should have the freedom to leave if you’re not satisfied with our service.
Most Upper Marlboro businesses can start processing within 24-48 hours of approval. Simple retail and service businesses often get approved same-day if your paperwork is complete.
The application process is straightforward. We need basic business information, bank account details, and identification. Higher-risk businesses or those with unique processing needs might take 3-5 business days for underwriting review.
Once approved, we schedule equipment installation and training at your convenience. Our Maryland-based team can usually get you set up within a week of your initial contact, often sooner if you need to start processing quickly.
You can accept all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. Debit cards, contactless payments, and mobile wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay are all supported.
Electronic check processing lets you accept checks by phone or online. Gift cards and loyalty programs help build repeat business. We also support EBT processing for businesses that serve customers using government benefits.
For online businesses, our payment gateway integrates with most e-commerce platforms. Phone and mail order processing gives you flexibility to take payments however your customers prefer to pay.
Setup fees depend on your equipment needs and business requirements. Many Upper Marlboro businesses qualify for free terminal placement, especially if you process a reasonable monthly volume.
We’re transparent about all costs upfront. If there are setup fees, we explain exactly what you’re paying for and why. No surprises on your first statement. No hidden programming fees or “activation charges” that some processors sneak in later.
Equipment lease options are available if you prefer predictable monthly payments. Purchase options give you ownership and typically save money long-term. We’ll help you choose what makes the most financial sense for your business.
Our 24/7 technical support gets you back up and running fast. Most issues can be resolved over the phone within minutes. If your terminal needs replacement, we typically ship overnight at no charge.
For Upper Marlboro businesses that can’t afford downtime, we offer backup terminals and mobile processing options. Your smartphone can process payments while you wait for terminal replacement or repair.
Preventive maintenance and regular software updates help avoid problems before they happen. Our Maryland service team can also provide on-site support for complex POS systems or integration issues.
Most transactions deposit to your bank account within 1-2 business days. This is much faster than waiting for checks to clear or dealing with cash deposit trips to the bank.
Consistent daily deposits improve cash flow predictability. You know exactly when funds will be available, making it easier to manage expenses and payroll. Weekend transactions typically deposit on Monday.
For businesses with higher transaction volumes, next-day funding is available. Some processors offer same-day deposits for an additional fee, but most Upper Marlboro businesses find standard timing works well for their cash flow needs.
