Clearent Announces Participation in American Express OptBlue Program

Clayton, MO, August 13, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Today Clearent, one of the fastest growing payment processing companies in the U.S., announced that it now offers expanded card acceptance to eligible small businesses through the OptBlue program.

With OptBlue, Clearent merchants can now accept American Express Cards with the same ease as other card brands they already take because they will now get one efficient and fast deposit, one statement, and one customer service contact for all card brands. These benefits in turn make it easier for merchants to manage their day-to-day operations so they can focus on the things that will really help them grow their business. Merchants also receive competitive pricing as the rate is set by their Clearent Representative.

Clearent’s ISO partners and sales teams are excited about the launch of OptBlue because it allows them to expand their product offering to merchants. Plus when coupled with Clearent’s next day funding service, which has one of the latest cut off times in the industry, this robust combination of services helps them stand out from their competition and sign more customers. Merchants also benefit from Clearent’s transparent pricing with no hidden fees for all of the card brands they accept.

“OptBlue is a valuable addition to Clearent’s array of products and services because it offers tangible benefits to merchants. They can save real time and money with a single deposit, a combined statement, and competitive rates,” said Dan Geraty, CEO of Clearent. “In turn we are also providing our sales partners and sales teams with tools that make them more competitive so they can grow their portfolio and their bottom line.”
