For Solar Installers, how you take payment day to day decides what your statement actually costs. In practice: big-ticket installs with financing and clean progress payments. That gets expensive fast: high-ticket sales triggering holds, declines, or steep fees, plus losing bigger sales when customers cannot pay all at once. Gateway focuses on high-ticket optimization: right-sized limits and clean settlement so large sales clear and cost less. Transparent interchange-plus and a specialist who answers.
