Green™, a check processing firm based in Alpharetta, announced today that they exceeded 2000 customers on March 17, 2010. The company achieved this goal far ahead of their projected growth targets.
“We provide the best service in the industry and the fastest processing available” said President, Lon Passoff. He continued, “Our technology and our platform allow us to deposit with speed and accuracy that our competitors cannot match.”
In addition to the 2000 merchants, Green™ has added 16 reseller agencies as well as an office in Sacramento, CA. Employees and sub-contractors for Green™ are in California, Connecticut, Georgia, Florida, Kansas, Missouri, Nevada, New York, and North Carolina. “We have clients in all 50 states and some very promising opportunities in the Caribbean” Passoff added. “In our original growth plan we estimated that we would be at this point by the beginning of 2011. More than 2000 merchants, our valued network of partners, sub-contractors, and merchant resellers have helped us achieve our business goals more than 8 months ahead of our original projections. This is a testament to the hard work of our employees and loyalty of our customers.”
Green™ has performed well because the economic crisis in the United States has caused banks to place strict limits on merchant account programs. This equates to long hold times and excessive fees for merchants who deposit all types of checks. Green™ offers merchants a free account with no start-up fees and no monthly recurring service fees. Merchants only pay for the check processing services that they actually use on a per check basis. This type of service is very attractive to companies who accept checks by phone, online checks, checks via fax, and traditional paper checks as well. Green™ has provided a new and efficient payment method that was not previously available to most of their 2000 plus merchants.
Green™ currently offers a variety of value-add services like “Pay-Now Buttons” for websites, Email Invoicing, Online Live Signature Capture, Automated Recurring Billing, Bill Pay Services (by mail or direct to a bank account), Batch Uploading, a Full Service API, a Full Tutorial System (available online or via telephone), and Same Day Deposit (to many major banks). In addition they plan to add things like Online Payroll and Online Shopping Cart Integration. Lon Passoff said, “This is an exciting time to be in business for our merchants. We have the ability to provide a host of valuable services to help them receive payments more effectively and more efficiently. The coming months are going to bring plenty of new opportunities for our merchants to enjoy the growth of Green™.”
