“To any independent merchant accepting credit cards that’s looking for a home, if you’re not using MBN, you’re making a mistake. They’re the best I’ve ever worked with — hands down.  Why? It’s service and follow-through. Their service to the agent is outstanding; they go the extra mile. When I call up and ask for something, they get back to me right away. One of my requirements is, if one of my merchants calls in, I want to be notified, no matter what they asked about. MBN does that. They’re great people — all of them! I know all their names!” – Lee Cazier

From a customer service standpoint, MBN has been fantastic. It’s nice to have that ‘family-like’ relationship with the tech support staff — you know, on a first name basis. Versus some of the other companies that we’ve dealt with over the years, where it’s more like you’re a number and not a name. They give you that comforting feeling that your accounts are being taken care of first-hand, including the tech support, underwriting the new accounts, etc. And they’ve always done a great job as far as turn-around time — some of the best I’ve seen.” – Cole Bass

“I very much appreciate the relationship we have with Merchant’s Bancard Network. We started with them 7 years ago, in 2007, and we’ve had a great working relationship with them ever since. We’ve kind of become ‘family,’ and the only issues we’ve ever had, they’ve been able to address. Any solutions we’ve been looking for in the marketplace, they’ve been able to fill that void. Everybody that works there, from the newest member of the team all the way up to Jerry Cain, are available at your disposal, any time!” – Chris Switzer
