CONTACT-LESS Merchant Processing With Lisa McCune and Affinity 24

In this week’s EAOC meeting, we learned all about the new developments in the world of merchant processing! Lisa McCune shared details on Clover, a new system that allows CONTACT-LESS transactions—something that ALL of our customers are looking for right now.

With contact-less payments, customers can simply hold their credit or debit cards up to the card reader to pay, or even use smart phone wallets like Apple Pay. There is absolutely no reason to touch any processing equipment anymore, which leaves EVERYONE feeling more comfortable in today’s climate. In fact, Lisa shared that since the onset of COVID-19, contact-less payments now make up a staggering 51% of all transactions!

Clover also allows inventory tracking, purchase orders, and even discounting and loyalty programs. Some states require that the cost of each item be visible to the customer while it’s being scanned, and Lisa’s equipment accommodates this as well.

In addition to attracting customers using the latest in technology, Affinity 24 has saved accounts 30-40% in processing fees when they switch over. Do NOT overpay or risk security by getting stuck with the larger processing companies!
For more information on Affinity 24, or to open an account, please contact Lisa at www.Affinity24.com.

What People are Saying

In the past 42 years I have received many good leads that have become good clients.  Many of them are still clients of the firm I am with today (This represented 50% of the clients that I merged into the new firm).  I have used many past and current members for a reliable source of good and reputable suppliers for both business and personal needs, including several members that helped me make profitable investments over the years.

Hal Grimshaw, Belden Hiramoto Liu & Co., LLP

I joined EAOC because Phil Kintz asked me. At the time the cost and early meeting time was a concern. The first six months of membership I received and extra $6000 in volume.

Gary Gregg, Creating With Glass

I have been a member for many years in several different classifications. EAOC has always provided me with a steady flow of leads. However the biggest benefit I’ve received has been “outside” of the core purpose of leads. A past member John Valentine, mentioned to me that he had heard about some industrial land for sale in Costa Mesa. I ended up buying it, building a warehouse and running my business at the time (South Coast Stationers) there for about thirty years. It was an excellent investment.

Pete Sloan,

A lead from Past member Bob Hardman eight years ago resulted in $15,000 of business. A lead from Mel Smith eight years ago resulted in $25,000 of business. Benefits of membership include direct business from other members resulting in $10,000 in business and direct business with other members that resulted in excellent service and financial savings.

Carlos Salazar, Salazar Associates

I have built my entire business on leads from the EAOC. I started my association management firm in 1981 with one client EAOC. In the last thirty four years the business has grown to fourteen associations. We employ eleven full time and one part time employee. I can trace ten of my long term clients to referrals from EAOC that brings in over $500,000 annually. The network of present and passed members has had a tremendous impact on my life.

Gayle Stewart, Gayle Stewart Enterprises

EAOC has been a reliable source of steady business for me for about thirty years. Thank You EAOC!
