Benefits of Working With Centurion

Transparent interchange-plus pricing, no contracts or leases, next-day funding, and a representative who actually answers.

Pricing You Can Audit

Every account is priced interchange-plus, so the cost set by the card brands passes through untouched and our margin is a fixed, disclosed figure. You can take any statement, pull the published interchange table, and verify the math yourself — which is not possible on tiered or flat-rate pricing.

No Long-Term Contract

No multi-year term, no early termination fee, and no equipment lease. If we stop earning your business you can leave, which is the only real accountability in this industry.

Equipment Without a Lease

Terminals and readers are placed or purchased outright. Multi-year terminal leases are the single most expensive line item we find on merchant statements — frequently several times the device's retail price, and usually non-cancellable for the full term.

  • Countertop and wireless terminals with EMV and contactless
  • POS systems for retail and restaurant environments
  • Mobile readers for field and delivery work
  • Gateway setup for e-commerce and recurring billing

Next-Day Funding

Standard accounts fund next business day on batches submitted before cutoff, so your deposits track your sales instead of trailing them by most of a week.

High-Risk Placement, Not a Blanket Decline

We hold relationships with multiple acquiring banks, including specialists in verticals mainstream processors reject on policy. A decline from one bank is not a decline from all of them — but approval is always the acquirer's underwriting decision, and we won't pretend otherwise.

A Named Representative

You get a direct line to a specific person who knows your account, not a general queue. When a batch doesn't fund or a chargeback arrives, you talk to someone who already has your file open.

Free Statement Analysis, Ongoing

The first review is free and carries no obligation. After that we re-check your statements periodically, because interchange tables update twice a year and your card mix shifts as you grow. If your effective rate drifts upward, we flag it before you find it.
