Credit cards have become a convenient and sometimes necessary part of daily operations and fundraising endeavors. Charities and schools often lack the transaction volumes to obtain the most economical processing fees and support costly equipment... resulting in lost revenues or delayed cash flow. To help you in this area, we provide a credit card processing system that is affordable and easy to use.

• This service is available to not-for-profit organizations at a special rate
• There is no need to purchase costly equipment
• If you have the processing volume to support your own direct processing system, we still offer discounts on equipment and transaction costs
