Compare Payment Providers

Our unique and free service gives you direct access to the most competitive offers from the UK’s leading payment providers, who each year process a billion pounds of card payments from our clients. We ensure you get access to exclusive deals and rates from the most relaible providers and ensure your rates dont move mid contract.

Over the last 12 years, thousands of business owners have used our services to access the cheapest merchant service rates that the banks would not offer if you approached them directly.

Our aim is to help business owners have peace of mind knowing they are paying competitive rates from trustworthy payment providers.

There are plenty of payment providers; some are good, and some are not so good. Classic examples of the “not so good” category include:

  • Rate increases mid contract
  • Additional hidden charges 
  • Poor after sales service
  • Exit Penalties 
  • Membership Roll-over agreements

Our objective is always to ensure you remain on competitive rates from reliable providers and to ensure they continue to “play fair” throughout your agreement with them.

Peace of Mind

“Act in Haste and repent at your leisure” is the old saying, but with our tried, trusted, and approved providers, you will always have us one call away (and no more than a few rings of the phone) to help in the unlikely event you have an issue with any of our payment providers.

We handle hundreds of card payment enquiries each month, so (with respect), our voice is a lot louder than that of one business on its own, and we are always happy to step in to help resolve the issue. We want you to have the peace of mind that you are paying competitive rates with one of our many trusted payment providers, leaving you to get on with running your business.

Get an Independent opinion

There is plenty of choice when choosing a payment provider, but it is time-consuming and confusing as there are a lot of facts to consider.

Independent Merchant Services cuts all the hassle and pain out of the process by using our comprehensive knowledge of most card processing offers available in the marketplace to provide free, impartial advice and recommend the best deal for your business needs.

No form filling, just indicative or bespoke prices, an explanation, some reassurance and backup support.

Group buying power

Benefit from our purchasing power

Sieving through copious numbers of sales calls, pitches, quotes and then emails including small print is confusing, and time consuming, so if you want to make an informed and accurate choice of payment provider, then take 5 minutes to speak to us to discuss the card providers, their “headline” pricing, and what they are actually charging you.

We are happy to thoroughly check any provider’s contractual t’s and c’s and advise you of any potential pitfalls which may negatively affect you during the life of the proposed contract and recommend alternatives that may be more suitable to you.

How we work

Why it Works

Whilst you have no contract with us and no obligation to accept our guidance, we are comfortable knowing that the offers we give you from the approved provider are the right ones for you.

We have no allegiance to any of the approved providers, but as long as they offer you the best services, products, prices and contracts throughout your time with them, that’s good enough for us!

Consider us as an information help desk rather than a broker, bank or provider.

We are just as keen as you to find the best deals for you. If we can help you find the best offers, then you sign up with them and get a great deal, the provider gets a new customer, and we receive a small introduction fee from them.

We handle thousands of enquiries a year and therefore have the buying power, influence and knowledge of the card payment industry to ensure the banks “sharpen their pencil” when it comes to pricing.

If they don’t offer you the cheapest card processing rates, then you don’t sign with them, and consequently, we remove them from our list of approved and competitive providers!

The process polices itself, and as you can see – everyone is a winner!
