💥 500.
Today, Salty Locs Payment Processing completed quote #500 against our competition in the USVI.
That’s 500 merchant processing statements analyzed line by line.
500 opportunities to see exactly what Virgin Islands business owners are actually paying to accept credit cards.
And what have we found?
Hidden fees. Inflated rates. Duplicate fees. Questionable charges. Unnecessary monthly fees. Markups buried inside statements. Extra charges on American Express. And fee structures so complicated that most business owners have no idea what they’re actually paying.
And it seems to be everywhere.
Allied Payments. E-Payment America. Blackstone. Dynamic Payments. Volt. MagicPay. Banco Popular Merchant Services. FirstBank Merchant Services. And plenty of others.
Sometimes it feels like everyone got together and decided:
“Let’s see how much we can charge USVI businesses before they finally start asking questions.”
Well… we’re asking the questions.
Here’s one that surprises a lot of business owners:
💳 American Express doesn’t automatically have to be the outrageously expensive card you’ve been led to believe it is.
In many of the statements we analyze, the problem isn’t simply American Express.
It’s the additional markup and fees being piled on top of it.
And that’s exactly why we do statement analyses.
At Salty Locs Payment Processing, we strip away the confusing language and show you:
✔️ What you’re actually paying
✔️ Where your money is going
✔️ Which fees may be unnecessary
✔️ How your current rates compare
✔️ And exactly where we believe we can save you money
We’ve helped businesses across the Virgin Islands dramatically reduce what they spend on payment processing by offering better rates, eliminating unnecessary fluff, and building processing programs that actually make sense.
And here’s the best part:
🔥 OUR STATEMENT ANALYSIS IS 100% FREE.
🔥 NO COMMITMENT.
🔥 NO OBLIGATION.
Give us your processing statement.
We’ll do the math.
Then YOU decide whether what you’re paying still makes sense.
After 500 quotes and 500 statement analyses, one thing has become very clear:
USVI BUSINESS OWNERS DESERVE BETTER.
When is enough… enough?
