Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) continuously want more control over the experience they deliver to their clients. As their growth plans continue to quickly evolve, they have recognized the importance of embedded payments. And as they take on additional payment-related responsibilities, they gain a higher share of the processing fees. However, not all payment providers offer the same level of support or economic advantages.

Key Considerations for ISVs Selecting a Payments Partner

The 2023 Software Study Report by TSG and ETA highlights the 3 primary factors ISVs evaluate when choosing a payments provider:

• Competitive Economic Split
• Quality Customer Support Team
• Easy Merchant Onboarding Process

What Many Integrated Payments Providers Lack

Many embedded payments providers simply fall short and fail to deliver on these critical components, leading to frustration for ISVs and their merchants. ISVs often cite concerns over unclear revenue-sharing models, slow merchant onboarding, and inadequate customer support. As a true partner, payments providers should actively contribute to the ISV’s growth and success going beyond just processing transactions.

Why Embedded Payments Are More Important Than Ever

According to the TSG study, 73% of ISVs are reevaluating their payments strategies. By selecting the right embedded payments partner, ISVs can unlock new growth opportunities while strengthening their software’s value proposition.

How BOLD Stands Out

BOLD Integrated Payments is committed to addressing these industry gaps, and giving control to ISVs:

• High Revenue Share Programs – ISVs receive true high revenue share with transparency on all income and expenses.
• Comprehensive Support Framework  – We are a nimble organization with engaged, personable, and responsive team members.
• Frictionless Merchant Onboarding – ISVs manage merchant pricing and sign-up process plus benefit from automated merchant approval and quick activation.

At BOLD, we believe that knowledge is just as valuable as service. Our goal is to equip ISVs with the insights and tools needed to further power their payments strategy, not just sell them a solution.

Let’s talk about your specific requirements and explore BOLD’s unique approach and industry insights.
