The cost of accepting credit cards is one of the most significant and avoidable line-item expenses facing U.S. businesses today, and it continues to increase on a regular basis.
We’ve seen firsthand how this impacts our clients across industries, and it’s become a clear call to action. That’s why we created Sidglo Plus: a tailored, industry-specific initiative designed to eliminate payment processing costs entirely.
We bring together cutting-edge payment technology, proven cost-saving strategies, and deep industry expertise to help firms like yours completely eliminate credit card processing costs for your entire portfolio of companies.
From card brand fees, to interchange fees from issuing banks, to fees added by processors, there are several cost components businesses incur when accepting credit cards.
However, the main culprit for the high cost of card acceptance are the rewards programs offered by the issuing banks in the form of points, miles, cash-back and the like.
Our Pay Zero program enables you to do what universities and government agencies have long been permitted to: pass on fees when customers choose to pay by credit card, while still giving the option to access savings by paying with a check or cash.
Pay Zero completely eliminates the cost of accepting credit cards, and has saved our clients an average of 97% on overall processing costs.
We support a wide range of POS systems and integrate with all major gateways, allowing Pay Zero to be deployed quickly and efficiently across varied portfolio assets.
Pass on those fees with ease.
The program is simple, all customers who choose to pay with a credit card will be charged a small processing fee at the time of purchase. If they want to avoid this charge, they can simply pay with a check or cash.
That simple.
Implementing this program is also just as simple. From the technology required to run it compliantly to the detailed customer and back office reporting, we will be able to provide you with a turn-key solution allowing you to be up and running and saving money in no time!
All of the POS hardware and software we provide will compliantly handle the program's execution right out of the box.
From back office to customer receipts, all reporting is clear and transparent for ease of use and understanding.
