The Card Processing Trap

You're bleeding profit on every transaction

2-3% Gone Forever

On $1M/month sales = $30,000 in fees. That's pure profit loss.

Chargeback Losses

$15-25 per chargeback + you lose the product. Fraud is rampant.

Unbanked Customers

25% of your neighborhood can't get cards. You lose sales.

High-Fee Wire Transfers

Sending money abroad? Banks charge 5-10% + days of wait.

A store doing $1M/month loses $30,000 to Visa/Mastercard

That's $360,000/year. SatsRail cuts this to ~$3,000/month.
