Merchant Cost Consulting’s unique profit model is based solely on sharing savings with its clients, which means that they strive hard to obtain the best possible rates for for their clients without any upfront costs or hourly fees. With monthly monitoring and rate adjustments, businesses can benefit from continued savings, and refunds for rate increases are also available.

Merchant Cost Consulting reduces merchant service fees to wholesale pricing for clients through a simple process that requires minimal effort. MCC audits the client’s merchant service provider processing statements for three to six months to identify hidden fees, surcharges, and unethical pricing. Next, MCC renegotiates monthly rates with the existing processing company to obtain lower credit card merchant fees. MCC continues to monitor the client’s credit card processing statements every month to ensure rates are never increased and no hidden fees are added.

The partnership between CGNA and Merchant Cost Consulting is expected to be highly beneficial for both parties, as well as for CGNA member distributors who can now take advantage of Merchant Cost Consulting’s expertise to reduce their credit card processing costs.
