Making Informed Choices: Why Ardiah Managed Services Trumps Banks for Local Payments

Authored by Christopher Austin, President of Ardiah Managed Services

Greetings, business innovators and decision-makers! Today, I want to delve into a topic that could significantly impact your bottom line and business operations – the choice between a local or independent payments provider like Ardiah Managed Services and the traditional banking route. As the President of Ardiah Managed Services, I’m here to reveal the critical differences and help you make an informed decision that aligns with your business’s needs and goals.

The Banking Dilemma: Monetization vs. Your Best Interest

Let’s be clear, not all banks are bad, and not all payments providers are saints. However, many banks have a different agenda when it comes to providing merchant services. The focus on monetization at every step of the process can end up putting a strain on your business finances. From costly equipment leases to inflated interchange fees hidden behind cryptic statements, the traditional banking route can often be fraught with unnecessary costs and lackluster service.

The Value of Local/Independent Payments Providers

Enter the realm of local or independent payments providers like Ardiah Managed Services. Our approach is rooted in transparency, fairness, and dedication to your success. Here’s why we stand out in the crowded landscape:

1. Equitable Equipment Costs

Unlike many banks, we refuse to mark up the costs of equipment. Our commitment is to provide you with accessible options. Most of our clients receive terminals for free placement, or if needed, they can purchase them at a reasonable price. We’re not here to extract value from your business – we’re here to help it thrive.

2. Unparalleled Support and Advocacy

When you partner with us, you’re not just signing up for a service – you’re joining a supportive ecosystem. Our 24/7 support ensures that your questions are answered promptly and efficiently.

3. Tailored Solutions for Your Growth

Your business’s success is our priority. We don’t focus solely on sales; we prioritize service. We understand that your needs may evolve, and your payments solution should evolve with them. Whether it’s negotiating better rates as your volume grows or identifying when it’s time to transition to a more suitable solution, we’re dedicated to being the partner you can rely on.

In a world where big banks and big tech dominate the payments landscape, local/independent payments providers offer a breath of fresh air. At Ardiah Managed Services, we’re not just a service provider – we’re your growth partner. We’re invested in your success, and that means we’re invested in providing fair, transparent, and effective solutions that empower your business.
