What a review found
$10,000
a year saved for a family-run business.
Found and fixed
We went through the statements line by line, found where the money was going and got it sorted.
Pricing locked in
The new rates are fixed, so they can’t quietly creep back up.
Paid by 7am, in full
Card takings land in full by 7am the next morning, so yesterday’s sales are in the bank before the doors open. That money is ready for suppliers, wages and stock, which makes cash flow far easier to manage.
Card processing is usually the biggest single saving, so it’s often where we start.
Where we find savings
We work with independent businesses up and down the US East Coast: stores, showrooms and other busy local businesses. If you pay for it every month, it’s worth a second look.
Card processing
Rates, markups, monthly fees, compliance charges and card machine costs. Often the biggest single saving.
Phone and internet
Business lines, broadband and mobile plans, including introductory rates that have quietly ended.
Software and subscriptions
Point-of-sale, accounting and other tools, checked for unused licenses and overlap.
Equipment leases
Card machines, printers and other leased equipment, checked against the cost of owning.
Service contracts
Alarm monitoring, maintenance, cleaning, pest control and anything that renews automatically.
Supplies
Packaging, supplies and other regular purchases: the same items on better terms.
You see the savings before anything changes.

Email PDFs or photos of a recent month’s statements and bills. Black out account numbers first.
See what you could save
We go through every line and send you a plain summary of what you’re overpaying. It’s free, with no obligation.
We do the work, then keep checking
With your approval, we negotiate with your providers or move you to better ones, then check every statement for as long as our agreement runs. You pay a share of the savings.
Contracts get read as closely as the numbers.
The experience behind every review
Our reviews draw on more than five years of hands-on retail operations, from the sales floor to running the business day to day, and legal training in business law. We know where costs hide in a busy store, and we read contracts as closely as the numbers.
No savings, no fee.
The review is free and there’s nothing to pay upfront. Send us a few recent bills and we’ll show you exactly what you could save.
