What is a Merchant Service Provider (or Acquirer)?
A merchant service provider or acquirer provides the products and services necessary for companies to process credit card transactions. United Payment Solutions is a merchant service provider. That means we provide a merchant bank account, we process credit card transactions for our merchants, and we move the funds from those transactions into the merchant’s bank account. Additionally, United Payment Solutions provides credit card processing equipment and training, merchant reporting, customer service, and risk management services.
