TALUS PAYMENTS

Talus Payments is a Dallas-based payment processing firm that primarily serves small and midsize businesses in the United States. Its roster of more than 25,000 active clients includes Super 8, the U.S.-based hospitality brand; Sunoco, the nationwide service station network; Maaco, a top auto body brand; and Fred Astaire, a major dance studio franchisor. Talus Payments serves four core verticals: restaurants, professional services firms, automotive firms and retailers. However, its approach is ... officially industry-agnostic, and its 150-strong team of payment processing professionals has the collective experience and expertise to serve SMBs in virtually any industry. The company’s website succinctly outlines its strategy: “to build payment processing solutions that work the first time, every time.” Talus Payments offers a slew of advantages that make its solutions and services particularly attractive to value-seeking SMB decision-makers. For starters, the company facilitates PIN-based debit card transactions, ACH and e-check transactions, gift card transactions, mobile wallet transfers and payments, and chip and magstripe credit card transactions. These capabilities are all directed with an eye toward increasing client revenue and operational efficiency while reducing burdens on internal accounts payable operations. All new Talus clients receive a Talus Pay Terminal free of charge. Unlike many processors, Talus chooses not to sell or lease equipment to new clients. The focus is on making sure the client has the best equipment and service to meet their needs right out of the gate, and not on making a quick buck off of equipment. Additional terminals per account may require a monthly charge, but any cost is far below market and cover the administrative support for multiple devices. The Talus Pay Terminal can support EMV payment technologies and boasts a user-friendly interface that caters to non-technical employees and customers. The Mobile Payments Reader is ideal for on-the-go payment processing. It’s small enough to fit in a pocket or side pouch and can operate anywhere with an Internet connection—perfect for food trucks, open-air markets, pop-up stores and other mobile businesses. Talus Payments is committed to facilitating timely payments for its liquidity-conscious small business partners. The company offers next-day funding for qualifying partner merchants of all sizes, with fast-as-possible processing for partners that don’t qualify. A comprehensive customer support system provides hands-on, expert-level assistance by phone,chat and email on a round-the-clock basis, with added insight from the Talus Help Center’s content-rich article database. Talus Payments understands that not every small business owner is a computer expert. The company’s turnkey payment processing technology is easy for non-technical clients to use and troubleshoot. Moreover, Talus relentlessly tests and iterates its payment processing platforms to ensure robust anti-fraud protections and full functionality in an ever-changing economic and digital security landscape.More
