For ISOs, acquirers & processors

We build the payments products your merchants are asking for.

Stripe, Square, and Toast take your merchants with software, not rate. We arm you to match them under your own brand, with boarding, statements, and invoicing built by the senior engineers behind a Top-10 US acquirer's platform. Own it outright, or co-invest and we put our own capital and engineers into the build.

The call

See the products your merchants want that you don't offer yet.

Book 20 minutes with our team. We'll walk your book and show you:

  • Every merchant-facing product gap on your book, and which ones cost you merchants
  • What closing each one could be worth in volume and residual
  • The build path that fits, and how we'd get paid

No obligation, no prep. Bring your merchant mix and rough volume if you have them.

How we get paid

You choose how we get paid.

Same senior payments team, same product. Three ways to structure the deal, from owning it outright to us earning basis points on the volume we help you grow.

Not sure which fits? We'll recommend the right model on the call.
The product

Give merchants a reason to stay that isn't your rate.

A sample of what we've shipped: white-label products on your rails, under your brand, live in months instead of the year-plus an in-house build takes. The tools your merchants use every day, and the economics your reps live in.

Bring the product your merchants are asking for.

We build it on your rails and under your brand, structured the way that fits: own it outright, pay in basis points, or co-invest with us.

Skin in the game

Co-invest with us, and we only win when you do.

Build for Points
We co-fund it, paid on volume.
Build for Stake
We fund it all, for equity.
Build for Hire
Full price, you own 100%.

We built v1 for a Top-10 US acquirer at our own cost. Five years later, it's still paying us both.

Proof, not promises

No logos here. That's what white label means.

Everything we build ships under our clients' brands, so the names stay off this page. The work does not. Here's what's live.

Record 01Live
Seven figures
A year, now in year five
Top-10 US merchant acquirer

They didn't pay us a dollar of engineering until it worked.

They wanted an invoicing and payments platform to sell to their merchants. We funded and built v1 at our own cost. Once it was live and earning, they picked up the engineering bill on top of paying us on the volume that runs through it. Five years later it clears seven figures a year, and it is still running.

National ISO

No boarding portal, no partner statements. We built both, then went one further.

They had no way to board merchants online and no statements for their partners' merchants. We built the boarding portal and the statement engine directly on their payment rails, under their brand. Then we added invoicing: ours is the only online invoicing tool integrated directly to their rails. Their partners see their logo on all of it.

ISO sales-enablement platform

Our name is on the cap table, not on an invoice.

A live sales-enablement platform for acquirers, ISOs, and payroll companies. We are the entire engineering organization behind it. We build it, we run it, and we hold equity plus a share of revenue. If the platform doesn't earn, neither do we. That's the alignment we sell, running in production.

The names are under NDA. The work is live and earning. Tell us your gaps and we'll map what we would build for you, on a quick .

Your numbers, on paper

The math is different for every book. That's the point.

How much your merchants are worth, how many Stripe and Square are courting right now, and what closing each gap adds: those are your numbers. A 20-minute call puts them on paper. No obligation.

Questions we get

The honest answers.

In Build for Hire, yes. The code is 100% yours from day one. On Build for Points and Build for Stake we share the upside at first, since we helped fund the build, but you're not locked in. Both have a path to buy us out and own it outright later. You pick the structure, we set the buyout terms, when we scope the deal.

Some, yes. The rest run under our clients' brands and stay under NDA, so we can't show those directly. What we can do is walk you through what we built and how it works, with the names off. On a call we'll show you what we can and describe the rest, then map out what we'd build for you.

A Top-10 US merchant acquirer, live and paying us for five years. A national ISO's boarding, statements, and invoicing. A live ISO sales-enablement platform we build and run as an equity partner. Names under NDA. The work is real.

There's no catch, that's the design. We put our own capital and senior engineers into the first build, and we're paid on the volume it drives or in equity. If it doesn't work, we don't get paid. We only win when you do.

No ramp. Our engineers come out of gateways, processors, acquirers, and ISOs, so nobody's learning PCI, settlement, interchange, or scheme rules on your clock.

Far less up front. You skip hiring and carrying a senior payments team, and on co-investment you pay as the volume grows, not before it does. We'll run your exact numbers on the call.

Next step

Tell us where your volume is going.

Bring your book. We'll score your gaps, show you which model fits, and you'll leave knowing exactly what we'd build and how we'd get paid.

On our co-investment models, our capital and engineers go into the first build, and we are paid on the volume it drives. We only win when you do.
