How Axe is Helping the Retail Industry
Cigar stores, gas stations, boutiques, grocery and general merchandise have all made the transition to Axe Payments and none have looked back. What retailers have learned is that they can implement a cash discounting program without customer abrasion. Ask us how.
“Before Axe Payments I had a different merchant processor cold calling the boutique almost daily. They all had a better deal – a lower annual fee, lower processing rates, etc. We even switched once or twice. At the end of the day though, savings were negligible. That is, until Axe Payments came along. Nobody can compete with or beat zero fees. Their Cash Discounting Program is real, and I am loving it.“
– Ashley, Retail Boutique

What Is Included
Axe Payments has developed an exclusive (patented) technology, which eliminates a major portion of total card payment processing costs. The payment terminal software program for the Cash Discount is designed to encourage customers to pay by cash or gift card. As part of the regular standard list product pricing a small service charge (either a fixed amount or percentage) is applied to all sales. A discount is automatically applied when customers pay with cash or gift card. No discount is given when paying by debit card or credit card. The patented software automatically determines all discounts and actions based on payment type.
Axe Payments built a secure Level 1 PCI Compliant cloud-based payment gateway for businesses transactions from a variety of different devices, anywhere in the United States. We aim to create a suite of payment industry tools with a business centric approach in mind. It’s time to simplify the complexity of payment gateways and payments industry.
