Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ISO for merchant services?

An ISO, or independent sales organization, is a business or organization that works with a payment processor or acquiring institution to market merchant services and support merchant relationships. An ISO may introduce businesses to credit card processing, gateways, terminals, billing, compliance, and related solutions. The exact responsibilities and commercial arrangement depend on the agreement between the ISO and its processing partner.
