Where we work in Tukwila
Tukwila is where I-5 meets I-405. It is the retail crossroads of the region. From a Southcenter shop to an airport-corridor hotel, we set up for the volume.
Westfield Southcenter area
The biggest indoor mall in the state, plus the shops around it. A POS and card prices built to keep check out fast at high volume.
How we set this up →Tukwila International Blvd

Get startedWhat a broker does for a shop that takes cards in Tukwila
We are a broker, not a processor. We work for you, not for them. We make banks and processors bid against each other for your Tukwila account. Your card rates drop. The way you take cards does not change.
Card processing is priced like used cars. The wholesale cost is public. The markup on top is not. A Southcenter retailer and an International Blvd restaurant can do the same volume and sit a point apart on rate. Neither would know. We make processors bid for your account. Then we check it again so the rate does not creep back up.
Tukwila packs more retail into a few square miles than almost anywhere in Washington. High volume means card fees add up fast, even at a rate that looks low. Retail margins are thin. Shave half a point off the rate, or move to dual pricing. That is often the gap between a good month and a flat one.

“Drew came out for the initial visit and helped with the setup, walking us through the entire process with ease. We're saving money with lower fees while getting top-notch service.”
“They made switching our payment processing incredibly easy. I needed a mobile solution that just works... It's rare to find a payment broker that actually cares about your bottom line.”
A Tukwila retailer doing $80K a month at a 2.7% real rate pays about $26,000 a year in card fees. On dual pricing, most of that goes back to the bottom line.
How dual pricing works →Tukwila questions, answered
Do you cover Tukwila in person?
Yes. We are a short drive south, in Federal Way. We read statements at your counter. We install on site. You meet your broker in person.
I run high-volume retail. Does a small rate change matter?
Hugely. At Tukwila retail volume, half a point of real rate is thousands of dollars a year. That's exactly the gap a real bid closes.
Is dual pricing legal in Tukwila?
Yes, all over the state. We set up the signs, the register steps and the receipts on day one.
What should a Tukwila business pay to take cards?
Effective rate is total fees over card volume. Healthy merchants land 2 to 2.5% traditional, or near 0% card cost on dual pricing. Over 2.5%, you're overpaying.
What does the rate check cost?
Nothing. Send us one recent statement. We read it line by line. You get your real rate, the junk fees by name, and the number we would bid for your volume. If your deal is already good, we say so.
