On Veterans Day, we honor those who've sacrificed so much in serving our country. While this special day of remembrance and recognition is important, it's equally imperative to keep these remarkable individuals in our thoughts every day, for many of these heroes face daily challenges long after returning home. 

Accepting credit cards swiftly and securely is a critical part of running virtually any business. Some companies, however, have needs that extend beyond the typical transaction. One such additional function required by many operations is the sale and printing of tickets. 

The MerchantPro Express (MPX) team is always striving to keep the business community informed on the best and latest merchant processing-related news and developments. 

In this ever-evolving industry, that's no small task. From advancements in credit card terminal and POS processing to determining the best merchant services solutions for your company—simply attempting to stay up to date can be a full-time job, for any business owner. 

MerchantPro Express (MPX) has been providing customers around the country with first-rate merchant services for more than ten years. Beyond this, though, MPX  understands that there’s much more to running a business than swiping credit cards. It’s an interwoven set of processes that combine to build a complex operation. With that fact in mind, MPX remains ever vigilant to identify new technologies that can help businesses optimize and save money. That’s why MPX has partnered with MetisPro. 

Long Island-based credit card processing and merchant services company MerchantPro Express (MPX) is no stranger to supporting causes it believes in, sponsoring and spearheading  a wide variety of charitable initiatives throughout the past decade. This commitment to improving the local community doesn't stop at the close of business, either. It's a core value ingrained in MPX's culture and team members. 

At MerchantPro Express (MPX), we not only bring first-in-class credit card processing and merchant services to businesses around the country, we also pride ourselves on supporting initiatives that help our local communities. Through our relationships with excellent nonprofits, such as PinkTie.org, or launching our own programs, such as Patriot Payments, MPX has a proud history of giving back.

A 10-year anniversary is more than just a benchmark in the history of a company.

It's proof that its products and services, leadership and team members, and the values and culture by which that team operates, are all pointing in the same direction—squarely toward success.

Joan Chechakos is a director of client/agent relations at MerchantPro Express (MPX). She's been with the company for three years and has been a valued asset through a major transition, inspiring us to recognize how happy we are to have her.
