About Us
Welcome to Ardiah - Locally Owned. Family Driven. Maine-Focused.
At Ardiah, we’re proud to be a family-owned, Maine-based business committed to serving small businesses with real solutions and genuine support. Owned and led by Chris Austin—with the support of his wife, Lindsey—Ardiah is built on values that reflect our local roots: transparency, responsiveness, and a deep belief in helping our clients succeed.
We’re not a big bank or a cookie-cutter software platform. We’re your neighbor, your advocate, and your trusted partner for Payroll, Payment Solutions, and Point of Sale Systems—with Business Lending and Coaching services returning this fall. This focused approach allows us to do what we do best while expanding services that help small businesses grow with confidence.
Our pricing is simple and honest—flat-rate, with no surprise fees—because we believe small businesses deserve predictable costs and clear value. We also provide free placement of most POS equipment, so you can focus on growing your business, not your expenses.
What sets Ardiah apart is how we work: one-on-one, with custom-fit solutions that match your unique goals. Whether it’s processing payroll, accepting payments, or preparing to scale your business, we tailor our tools and support to fit your needs.
If you’re looking for a real partner—someone who answers the phone, knows your name, and truly wants to see your Maine business thrive—you’re in the right place. At Ardiah, local isn’t just a location. It’s our way of doing business. And your growth is our mission.
