Members taking advantage of the MRA-sponsored credit card processing program have seen significant savings. The new agreement with Michigan Bankard Services (MBS) has slashed rates in almost every average ticket range, with some members realizing additional savings of more than twenty percent!

“My rate was cut dramatically. I’m now saving hundreds and hundreds of dollars more on my credit card processing,” said Peter Christoff of P.T. Christoff’s. Helen Wiley of the Pasta House also benefited from the new agreement. “Not only do I have this great low rate, but I feel comfortable knowing my transactions are being handled by a Michigan-based company. I can call them and get my questions answered quickly,” she said.

Strength in numbers.
The MRA was able to leverage better rates in part because of the number of members using the MBS processing program, and also because of the overall group volume. There are now nearly 400 members taking advantage of the discounted credit card rates, and total processing volume exceeds $125 million. By combing the buying power of many restaurants through the MRA, members save significantly while still processing through one of the states most respected merchants. Add that to award-winning service, restaurant specific experience, and reliability, and you have an unbeatable program for accepting credit cards.

Award winning service.
Michigan Bankard Service offers you award winning service, nationally recognized by both Visa and MasterCard for superior quality support and merchant charge-back protection. Also, their Michigan-based sales service means no waiting for answers or supplies. MBS offers around-the-clock merchant support, plus all the technical consulting you need.
