Partners

If businesses listen to you, let's talk.

SwitchKeep is built for the businesses themselves. Partners help us reach them and help them get set up well. Pick the track that fits you: each has one application, and we review every one.

Four tracks

What you get, how businesses arrive, and how you're paid.

ISOs and agents

What you get
Your merchants take payments inside their own software, on the gateway you boarded. The partner portal shows every merchant.
How merchants arrive
You board them yourself in the partner portal: the MID, its gateway keys, then a login for the merchant.
How you're paid
Processing stays yours, on your pricing. Sales agents who board through an ISO apply as an agent and get a referral link.

Consultants and bookkeepers

What you get
A better payments setup for your clients, with payments recorded on each invoice and deposits that reconcile, without changing their software.
How clients arrive
Share your referral link, or introduce a client. We do the setup and support; the relationship stays yours.
How you're paid
Referral terms agreed with you. If your professional rules limit referral fees, the benefit can go to your client instead.

Referral partners

What you get
An independent payments option for your members, franchisees or customers, with a page and webinars for them.
How businesses arrive
Through your referral link, your member page or a proposal you send. We take it from there.
How you're paid
Referral, co-marketing or a member program: terms shaped around how you work.

Processors and banks

What you get
Your merchants paid inside software you can't integrate with yourself, and a reason for them to stay.
How merchants arrive
You board them in the partner portal on your gateway, or we connect it first. Nothing for the software company to approve.
How you're paid
You keep the processing and its economics. Platform terms are agreed with each processor.

Referral partners

For the people businesses already follow.

Software makers

Build software businesses invoice from? Your customers can take payments on their own merchant account, set up through us or kept with their processor, and keep using you. Tell us about your product and we'll look at supporting it properly.

Trade associations

Offer members an independent payments option as a member benefit, with webinars and a page for your members.

Marketing agencies

Your contractor clients spend money to win jobs. Help them collect on those jobs with less friction.

Franchisors

One setup across locations. Each franchisee keeps the software the agreement allows, on a merchant account set up through us or their processor.

Two ways to set up

Your merchant account comes one of two ways.

Which one depends on how you come to us. Either way, SwitchKeep Pay is free and your software stays exactly as it is.

Through SwitchKeep Direct

We set up your own merchant account

One short application. We follow it through approval, connect it and test it. The account is in your business's name, and so is the rate.

For businesses that come to us directly. This is a new processor for you.

Through your advisor or processor

Keep your processor

If an ISO, agent or payments partner already looks after your merchant account, they connect it to SwitchKeep. Your rate and your statements stay with them.

For businesses that came through a partner. Not sure yours works with us? Ask, and we'll check.

How it works

Simple to start.

  1. Apply on your track

    One short application. Tell us who you serve and the software they use.

  2. Agree the terms

    We review every application and email you the outcome.

  3. Send businesses our way

    Your referral link credits every business that starts from it. Each gets the same step-by-step walkthrough.

  4. Follow their progress

    The partner portal shows each business you sent and where it stands.

Not sure which track fits?

A short email is enough: who you are, who you serve, and what you're thinking.
