“ What a Program! We have already seen savings in the 20% range. This is by far the best we have seen of any processing system we have used in the past. To add to the savings, the processing itself is super-fast and our customers as well as our employees could not be more relieved with the encryption for PCI compliance. We hesitated slightly due to the processing fee, but in retrospect, I wish we had moved quicker to get this program. We recovered our losses on the terminal fee in a month’s time, and in customer service alone, we would have been willing to pay the extra amount. Well done NAPA! Thanks for offering us the best programs in the industry! ”
