Comments:
Jeremy Wing, President & Co-Founder at Payscape: “The addition of Vendevor makes Payscape the starting point for every SMB merchant and puts us in an opportune position to streamline the other aspects of their business.”
Douglas Hardman, CTO at Payscape: “Vendevor’s mission is to make it unbelievably easy to start selling online and accepting credit cards. This was an ideal fit into the Payscape technology roadmap.”
David Grubbs, former CEO at Vendevor: “Payscape’s amazing team and their rich portfolio of existing merchant services made it a perfect home for Vendevor’s existing clients and plug-and-play ecommerce solutions.”

This model will simplify the merchant experience by offering guaranteed monthly pricing regardless of growth or other changes in the business.
