Gateway Financial
For print & sign shops

Payments tuned for print & sign shops

At Print & Sign Shops, card mix, ticket size, and timing change your true rate more than a headline quote ever will. Your reality on the ground: counter.

At Print & Sign Shops, card mix, ticket size, and timing change your true rate more than a headline quote ever will. Your reality on the ground: counter and account orders on one system, with business-card savings. That gets expensive fast: chasing invoices and waiting on checks to clear, plus fraud and chargebacks on card-not-present orders. Our setup targets invoicing & pay-by-link for print & sign shops, not a one-size countertop bundle.

1Reality check

Sound familiar?

These are the friction points we hear most often from print & sign shops before a savings review.

  • In-person sales billed at higher tiers than they actually qualify for
  • Business and government cards costing far more than they should
  • Chasing invoices and waiting on checks to clear
  • Fraud and chargebacks on card-not-present orders
  • Statements you cannot actually read or verify
2Payment motion

How print & sign shops get paid

Your underwriting, equipment, and pricing should match this flow, not a generic countertop setup.

  • Emailed pay links for open balances and deposits
  • Progress billing on longer projects
  • Phone and email orders completed via secure pay link
  • Remote approvals without keyed card numbers
