THE MISSING PRODUCT IN YOUR BUSINESS BANKING SUITE

Your Customers Already Process Payments. The Question Is: With Whom?

When merchant services sit outside your institution, a critical part of the financial relationship—and its recurring economics—goes to another provider.

THE CURRENT GAP

Deposits live with you. Payments live somewhere else.

That gap gives national processors and fintechs another daily touchpoint with your most valuable business customers.

See What Their Payment Volume Could Pay You Every Month.

No new banking customers. No increase to account fees. Just recurring income from payment volume your existing businesses already process.

Calculate your payments revenue

Move the sliders to match your customer base. The illustration assumes the institution earns 1% of total sales processed by activated merchants.

ESTIMATED MONTHLY RESIDUAL INCOME$37,500
150Existing customers activated
$450,000Estimated residual every year
$2,250,000Five-year illustration

Illustration only and not an earnings guarantee. Calculations use a 1% residual assumption supplied for this campaign and hold customer count, monthly sales, and adoption constant. Actual revenue depends on activated merchants, eligible processed volume, pricing, costs, risk, attrition, bank approval, processing activity, and final partner terms.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What Banking Leaders Ask First.

What does it cost to become a SMPL partner?

$0. There is no partner setup fee or platform fee. The relationship operates on a 100% revenue-share model: our economics come from the payment revenue we build together, subject to final partner terms.

Do we need to build a merchant-services support team?

No. SMPL handles backend merchant support, payment questions, onboarding assistance, equipment, processing operations, and sponsor-bank coordination so your team can stay focused on business banking and distribution.

Can we customize merchant pricing?

Yes. We provide approved base rates and guidance; your institution designs customer-facing pricing within agreed program parameters.

Can merchants accept online and in-person payments?

Yes—website payments, shopping carts, invoices, deposits, recurring billing, virtual terminal transactions, ACH, and physical hardware.

What if a merchant does not want dual pricing?

SMPL also supports competitively priced traditional processing.

Does every merchant qualify for 0% processing fees?

No. Availability depends on eligibility, business type, processing profile, bank approval, and compliant implementation.

Is this only for traditional banks?

No. The model is designed for qualified community and regional banks, credit unions, and neobanks with established business-customer relationships.
