The Problem

Most mid-market companies have never been told they're overpaying.

Payment processors profit from complexity and silence. Your clients assume their fees are standard. They're not — and nobody's told them.

They outgrew their pricing model

Companies that started on Stripe when small often scale to $5M–$30M in annual card processing without ever being told to move to interchange-plus pricing. The delta is typically 0.4–0.8% of processing volume — on $10M, that's $40K–$80K/year.

B2B data never gets submitted

Corporate card transactions qualify for dramatically lower interchange rates when Level 2 and Level 3 data is submitted at point of sale. Most checkout flows don't collect it. The processor charges standard rates. Nobody catches it.

Processor statements go unaudited

Processors make billing errors — wrong MCC codes, improper downgrade reasons, duplicate assessments. Mid-market finance teams rarely have the expertise to catch them. Testing found an average of 3–7 statement errors per quarter per account.

No payments expertise required. Connect your client's processor and the diagnostic runs itself.

A polished, client-ready PDF with your logo, your firm name, and AI-generated plain-language explanations of every finding. You present it. You take the credit. Ongoing monitoring catches new issues monthly.

Common Questions

Answers before you apply.

Do I need to know anything about payment processing?

No. The platform generates plain-language explanations of every finding. We also include a complete training library, discovery call scripts, and client Q&A guides so you can speak confidently from day one.

What processors does the platform connect to?

Starter: Stripe, PayPal, Square. Growth and Agency add Worldpay, Chase Paymentech, Elavon, Heartland, and Fiserv. We add integrations quarterly based on partner requests.

How do I price this service for my clients?

We give you a complete client pricing playbook. Most partners charge $2,000–$5,000/month per client. Many offer a free initial audit as a door-opener and convert to a monthly monitoring retainer after delivering the findings report.

What if the audit doesn't find much?

In testing, fee issues were identified in 91% of accounts processing $1M+ annually. If we find nothing material in your first client's audit, we extend your subscription. The 30-day satisfaction guarantee also applies to your first month.

Is the Founding Partner price really locked forever?

Yes. As long as your subscription stays active, your rate never increases regardless of where standard pricing moves. It's our way of rewarding the consultants who believed in the platform early. No catches.

What's the minimum commitment?

Three months. This ensures every partner has enough time to onboard clients and see real results. After three months, cancel anytime with 30 days' notice.

Can I refer other consultants and earn a commission?

Yes. Founding Partners earn 30% of the monthly fee for every partner they refer, for 12 months. Standard partners earn 20%. Your referral dashboard tracks everything in real-time.

How does the white-label branding work?

Starter and Growth include your logo and firm name on all reports. Agency tier adds a fully white-labeled client portal on your custom domain — zero 'powered by' references anywhere. Your clients see only your brand.
