Thank you Cole!

Cole was so helpful in getting my business approved for credit card payment processing!
He stayed in constant communication and worked well with underwriting and myself to get any questions cleared up. He was polite and easy to work with and I’m very thankful !
Edit : although Cole was polite and I won’t take that back
this company set me up to purchase a machine and then cancelled my account before I could use it ! Buyers Beware!

Was looking for a new card processing service, filled out a request with Stax for someone to contact me. Within an hour, Nick Kagy called and went over details with me on the phone. He was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful about choosing the type of service I needed. Highly recommend him.

First of all I have to give all the credit to Cole Rakhshani. I knew nothing about this product or how it worked. He was patient and kind through the process. He answered each and every question I had. I can't wait to start saving thousands of dollars per year. Should have made a switch a long time ago. Thank you Cole!

Great experience with Madelyn at Stax

Great experience with Madelyn as she was very knowledgeable about the platform and provided me a clear understanding of everything. She got my account set up efficiently and responded to any questions I had with lightning fast response time.

I do not recommend, it's a complete rip-off.

I used Stax for over 5 years. When I first onboarded, our total fees, between monthly and individual processing fees were around 3.5% of transactions.

Now, the last 6 months averaged over 14%. We proccessed anywhere from $500k to $1M per year with them and this was what we got.

I do not recommend, it's a complete rip-off.

I now use Intuit for a total of 3% of all transactions.

Amazing service

Christina was an awesome help. I explained to her what I needed and what I was looking for and she told me that she would be glad to help and to make sure that it would be a good fit for my small business. She also helped me fill out my application. We submitted it and we got approved! I am very pleased with her, and for taking her time to guide me through the steps, definitely recommend to my friends who also have their own small businesses. thank you Christina🙏

Joe was extremely helpful

Joe was extremely helpful. The world of processing was brand new to me and we had limited time to get a system up and running. He was not pushy like other companies and he was very transparent with the process. I appreciate the full access to him if I had any questions I could talk directly to him.

Nick has been very responsive. STAX can be VERY difficult to get a staff member on the phone to answer questions without automated responses. Nick was very helpful
