  • Mark R. Kidd
    I would like to thank you and Atlantic Merchant, for your hard work in helping my company, Kidd Communications with my credit card transactions.
    Over the past few years, my credit card fees have gone up to crazy highs. You and your company have cut my fees I was paying in more than half. The terminal I purchased from you was about one third the price of the one I purchased from the other company. ..What I liked best I called you a couple of times with questions, and you answered the phone both times.  That usually does not happen in todays world.
