About Us

We believe all businesses should have access to fair and transparent credit card processing

No business should have to worry about the cost of accepting credit cards

​

So we built Zilment as a tool to empower businesses to find the best credit card processing solutions on the market. Although they are shown in percentages, getting a competitive processing rate can add up to thousands of dollars a year in savings. You work hard for your money, and at the end of the day you shouldn't have to pay to get paid.

​

Zilment was founded because we grew tired of seeing business owners overpaying for payment processing. Accepting credit cards is a necessity, yet too often payment processors and their sales agents use this fact to their advantage. No longer should small-to-medium sized businesses pay higher rates than the Fortune 500. We negotiated to get industry-low rates with features like no cancellation fees and monthly contracts, and pass it all onto you, so you can put more money in your pocket. 

​

We're here to help businesses of all sizes - so let's get saving today.
