At Merchants4Kids, we believe in doing more than just processing electronic payments. We believe in community and in being of ... service. To that end, we’ve developed a new business approach for the payments processing industry that allows us to provide services to our clients while also being of service to our community in three unique ways: 1. Saving Merchants Money 2. Helping Neighbors Earn an Income 3. Giving Back to Our Community’s Children “What makes Merchants4Kids truly unique is its community focus,” says Susan Watkins, CEO. “First, it’s neighborhood residents who promote our merchant services, earning a passive income in the form of residuals for every local merchant they sign up. Then, it’s local businesses, which profit from lower processing rates and fees, which allow them to keep more of their hard-earned profit. Finally, it’s the community’s children who benefit from Merchants4Kids’ donation of a portion of all its proceeds to charities dedicated to strengthening families with young children and the communities in which they live.” The first charity to receive regular monthly donations from Merchants4Kids is Children’s Bureau, a Los Angeles-based non-profit with satellites in Orange County and the Antelope Valley. read more
