The Interview: Choosing the Right Merchant Account Provider

Q1 (Vendor Rebates): What are the most important factors a business should evaluate when choosing a merchant account provider?

Adam Weizer (Servistree):

“Businesses need to look beyond raw processing percentages and evaluate three core areas:

1. Total Cost Structure & Transparency: Are you on a traditional interchange-plus model, or are you utilizing zero-cost fee-shifting options like surcharging or cash discounting? Watch out for hidden monthly statement fees, batch fees, and mandatory long-term leases.

2. Compliance & Hardware Capabilities: If you pass on credit card fees through surcharging, your terminal and POS system must automatically handle calculations, show mandatory disclosures, and register with Visa and Mastercard.

3. Contract Terms & Support: Avoid multi-year lock-in contracts with steep cancellation penalties. At Servistree, we offer a No Contract, No Cancellation Fee, No Risk model so our service earns our clients’ business every month.”

Q2 (Vendor Rebates): What is the “Fee-Shift” or Surcharging model, and how does it help businesses eliminate processing fees?

Adam Weizer (Servistree):

“Credit card surcharging (which we call Fee-Shift) allows businesses to automatically pass the processing fees associated with credit cards directly to the cardholder at the point of sale.

Instead of taking a 2.5% to 3.5% hit on every transaction, the merchant keeps 100% of the purchase amount.

• Legality: Surcharging is legal in 48 states (excluding CT and MA, where we implement compliant cash discount programs instead).

• Customer Choice: Debit cards and cash are never surcharged, giving cost-conscious buyers simple alternatives.

• Profit Impact: A business processing $100,000 per month can instantly re-inject $2,500 to $3,500 back into their bottom line every single month.”

Q3 (Vendor Rebates): How does Servistree cater to specialized industries like Healthcare and Practice Management?

Adam Weizer (Servistree):

“Healthcare practices—doctors, dentists, clinics—face unique operational and compliance burdens. Servistree Healthcare Payments provides PCI- and HIPAA-compliant payment systems that integrate directly into existing practice management software.

We automate in-office checkout, online patient payment portals, and recurring billing for past-due balances. This drastically reduces administrative time for office staff while offering patients flexible ways to pay.”

Q4 (Vendor Rebates): What special offers and rebate opportunities are available for businesses that switch to Servistree through Vendor Rebates?

Adam Weizer (Servistree):

“We’ve partnered with Vendor Rebates to deliver an unmatched value package for new merchants:

• Free Terminal Promotion: When you open a new Fee-Shift account, you receive 1 FREE Smart Payment Terminal valued at $750.

• 0.10% Cash Rebate: You receive a 0.10% quarterly cash rebate on your total monthly credit card volume. For example, processing $100,000 in credit transactions per month puts an extra $100 cash back in your pocket every quarter, on top of saving thousands on processing fees.

• Zero Long-Term Leases or Contracts: Complete flexibility with transparent SaaS flat-rate options.”

Q5 (Vendor Rebates): What are the simple steps for a business to analyze their current setup and switch to Servistree?

Adam Weizer (Servistree):

“Getting started takes less than 5 minutes on the business owner’s part:

1. Cost Analysis: Send us 2 to 3 months of your current merchant billing statements. We run a full line-by-line comparison to identify hidden fees, overcharges, and potential savings.

2. Review & Customized Setup: We review the analysis together and determine the best solution—whether that’s Fee-Shift zero-cost processing, traditional rate reduction, or specialized POS hardware.

3. Plug-and-Play Deployment: We ship pre-configured terminals and assist with software integration so there is zero downtime for your business.”
