InterPayments is a San Francisco, CA-based, Series A FinTech SaaS company sitting at the exciting intersection of payments and data intelligence. Our Mission is to empower merchants and the software vendors they use to lower payment processing costs. We create innovative data services that Fortune 1000 companies rely upon to lower fees by putting payments in competition on every swipe.  

We empower dedicated team-first individuals who are driven to solve problems to foster innovation, perform at their highest potential, and make a meaningful impact - while creating meaningful relationships along the way.

US merchants pay ~$100 billion annually in processing fees. In fact, processing costs can account for up to 5% of merchants’ revenue. These fees are so high because merchants can’t easily negotiate these fees. Merchants pay a unique processing fee to its customers’ banks for every type of card. Those fees are set by card networks, who enable banks to issue cards and fund rewards. In short, merchants pay for their customers’ rewards but have no say in how fees are set. This system leads to less payments competition and higher payments costs. 

Amazon highlighted this pain point in September 2021: "The cost of accepting card payments continues to be an obstacle to providing the best prices for customers. These costs should be going down over time with innovation and technological advancements...yet, some cards' cost of payments continue to stay high or even rise." 

InterPayments empowers SMB and enterprise merchants through our surcharging managed service. We are the only provider that ensures merchants can dynamically and compliantly recover their credit card processing fees.

What We Do

InterPayments is not a gateway or processor. We are for mid- and enterprise-size merchants who are dissatisfied with high credit card fees. Our surcharging technology works like your sales tax engine - but for card fees. Compliantly recover fees within your existing payment process without changing payment providers. We contractually guarantee compliance with the 67 jurisdictions that govern surcharging.

Alternative surcharging programs simply offer 3.5% fixed rate processing terms without compliance guarantees. They force surcharging across all transactions, have no integrations into your ERP/CRM, and profit by forcing you to pass along their high fees to your customers.

InterPayments' technology is an integrated SaaS. We work with any gateway or processor. We integrate end-to-end with your existing payments flow from payment application to accounting in your general ledger. We offer variable rate surcharging for interchange plus processing terms. And we allow you to customize who, what, where, and how much you surcharge - at the click of a button.

Merchants, payment software vendors, and merchant acquirers use InterPayments to recover processing fees without compliance risks
