Jonathan Ruiz5/1/2026
Many companies offer a Free POS system. But nothing is truly free. 👉 See real options: https://merchantsolutionscorp.com/free-pos-system What “Free” Means Most providers give you hardware but make money on processing fees. The Real Cost You may pay higher rates over time. Payment processing fees can accumulate rapidly. You may just experience bad support, (You get what you pay for) with little to no profit; it is very hard for them to support you Or you probably will just see certain junk fees add up over time; this scenario is the most common with free equipment. Better Option Use transparent pricing like: 👉 https://merchantsolutionscorp.com/dual-pricing-cash-discount-payment-processing This helps businesses reduce fees and keep more profit. In turn it allows Merchant Solutions Corp to offer VIP white glove service, pay for the equipment and not wait 2 years for a ROI. Do you prefer not to use Dual pricing and a Simple Flat rate option? That’s fine. Merchant Solutions is proud to offer transparent pricing that makes customers delighted and keeps customer churn down. If you believe that free equipment is really for you, please contact us for a quick, free consultation. You can see if you qualify in 60 seconds or less.

Our standard interchange-plus pricing starts at interchange + 0.25% + $0.10. Dual-pricing customers pay $0 processing fees because the cash discount is passed to the cardholder. Custom rates apply for high-volume merchants above $250K/year.

How fast can MSC get me set up?

Most single-location merchants are approved within 24-48 hours and live within 3-5 business days. Hardware ships next-day. We handle menu/inventory build, employee setup, and on-site or remote training.

Which payment processors do you work with?

We are processor-agnostic. We place merchants with Fiserv, TSYS, Worldpay, Elavon, Shift4, and Electronic Payment Exchange (EPX) — whichever delivers the best underwriting, rates, and POS fit for your business.
