Fiserv acquires long-standing partner MerchantPro Express
Fiserv has acquired MerchantPro Express, a credit card processing firm that it has worked with for over a decade.
Fiserv will combine its payment solutions with its new acquisition
The combination will bring together Fiserv’s payment solutions, including CoPilot, CardPointe and Clover, with the onboarding services of MerchantPro Express.
Devin McGranahan, senior group president for global business solutions at Fiserv, says that the combination will enable Fiserv to expand the speed of delivery it provides “new and innovative solutions.”
Headquartered in Melville, New York, MerchantPro Express provides processing services, point-of-sale (POS) equipment and merchant cash advances to businesses. It has been a Fiserv distribution partner since 2009.
