There seems to be no information on the company website regarding the ranking criteria. Information concerning cost per transaction, monthly fees, and startup fees are nowhere to be found. Other industry competitors are more upfront about pricing information and contracts.
Due to the severe lack of information, we can't gauge the quality of Certified Payment Processing's services. There simply isn't enough information. We recommend looking into top industry competitors that are more upfront and transparent when it comes to pricing and services.
We're on a mission to empower consumers to make the best decisions and connect confidently with companies that deserve their business.
