Where we work in Renton
Renton's downtown is one of the most mixed small-business areas in the region. The right setup fits that mix. It works for a family place to eat or a Landing store.
Downtown Renton
One of the most mixed food scenes around. African-American, Asian and Hispanic owned restaurants and markets. Dual pricing and clean receipts that fit a family run counter.
How we set this up →The Landing
Shops, food and fun spots with steady foot traffic. A POS that tracks stock. Card prices your customers can read at a glance.
How we set this up →Rainier Ave service corridor
Auto shops, repair and service spots that ring up big tickets. Interchange plus pricing wins here most of the time.
How we set this up →South Renton clinics & studios
Health, wellness and shops that book ahead. Card on file, billing that repeats, and dual pricing done right.
How we set this up →In another part of Renton? We cover it too.
Highlands, Talbot, Benson Hill, the Sunset corridor. If you take cards in Renton, the free statement read is yours.
Get startedWhat a broker does for a shop that takes cards in Renton
We are a broker, not a processor. We work for you, not for them. We make banks and processors bid against each other for your Renton account. Your card rates drop. The way you take cards does not change.
Card processing is priced like used cars. The wholesale cost is public. The markup on top is not. A downtown restaurant and a Rainier Ave auto shop can do the same volume and sit a full point apart on rate. Neither would know. We make processors bid for your account. Then we check it again so the rate does not creep back up.
Downtown Renton runs on small, often family-owned shops. Those are the ones big processors quietly charge too much. No one is working the deal for them. That is the whole reason a broker exists. We put someone on your side of a deal that is usually one-sided.

Read them all →“We've really appreciated having a local presence that we can interact with in person and get in person assistance... Very competitive rates. I absolutely recommend Northwest Payment Brokers!”
“Drew came out for the initial visit and helped with the setup, walking us through the entire process with ease. We're saving money with lower fees while getting top-notch service.”
“They made switching our payment processing incredibly easy. I needed a mobile solution that just works... It's rare to find a payment broker that actually cares about your bottom line.”
A Renton restaurant doing $55K a month at a 3% real rate hands its processor about $19,800 a year. On dual pricing, most of that stays in the till. For a family shop that is a real paycheck.
How dual pricing works →Renton questions, answered
Do you cover Renton in person?
Yes. We are a short drive south, in Federal Way. We read statements at your counter. We install on site. You meet your broker in person.
I run a small family business. Is this worth it for me?
Especially for you. Small shops get charged the most. That is because no one is working the deal for them. The free statement read costs you nothing. It usually finds money.
Is dual pricing legal in Renton?
Yes, all over the state. We set up the signs, the register steps and the receipts on day one.
What should a Renton business pay to take cards?
Effective rate is total fees over card volume. Healthy merchants land 2 to 2.5% traditional, or near 0% card cost on dual pricing. Over 2.5%, you're overpaying.
What does the rate check cost?
Nothing. Send us one recent statement. We read it line by line. You get your real rate, the junk fees by name, and the number we would bid for your volume. If your deal is already good, we say so.
It starts with one statement.
We just need to see one recent statement. Upload it right here, or we'll swing by your Renton business and grab it in person. One or the other, and the read is free.
