PRNewswireSeptember 21, 20226 min

Lynk, the company providing merchants an alternative to costly credit card processing fees while powering customer loyalty programs that drive revenue, today announced the general availability of its branded payment solution. The platform enables marketplaces to own their own payment ecosystem without upfront fees, large cash reserves or the cost of hiring an engineering team to build. As part of its launch, Lynk has raised $3 million in seed capital that included participation from Samsung Next, Plug and Play, Tribe Capital, Simplex Trading, N49P and others.

Dozens of fast-growing merchants are already using Lynk’s platform to reduce their credit card processing fees by as much as 90% and fund reward programs with no cost to their bottom line. Lynk is on track to power more than 2 million retail transactions in 2022.

Lynk’s closed loop platform is specifically designed for startups, small- to medium-sized marketplace and gig economy companies that find themselves burdened with high credit card processing fees. Traditional credit card processing fees range from between 2.9-5% per transaction and fund their credit card loyalty programs. Lynk’s transaction fees are the lowest in the industry, ranging from 0.5-1%.

In addition, Lynk users have immediate access to their sales revenue unlike traditional credit card platforms where it can take up to five days to receive payment.

With interest rates continuing to rise, forcing businesses to pass these costs onto their customers or cut into their bottom line, Lynk is also unveiling its free Savings Fee Calculator for any business owner to calculate savings and help fuel company growth.

“We chose Lynk because of their ability to provide us with the lowest fees in the market and to get us up and running fast. Lynk is going to fuel our growth at GasAppAuto.io rapidly, ” said Scott Armstrong, Co-Founder of GasAppAuto.io.

“Credit card fees and building customer loyalty are two of the biggest challenges for small business owners. In the current payment systems, they are at the mercy of credit card providers, banks, payment networks and aggregators that all pile on fees and control when payments are funded,” said Lynk Co-Founder and CEO Nabi Awada. “Lynk’s branded payment solution enables businesses to own the payment experience – the same way Starbucks owns their payment ecosystem with their branded wallet, which costs millions of dollars to develop. With Lynk, setup can be completed in days, not weeks, without upfront costs while still being fully compliant.”

Lynk offers the most cost-effective solution in the market, enabling companies to reduce payment fees by up to 90%, while launching a fully compliant platform without the need for chargeback reserve funds and within weeks rather than months.

“We invested in Lynk because its solution enables companies to focus more on developing innovative products and services, and less on overcoming financial and regulatory obstacles,” said Lizzy Goldman, Venture Capital Investor at Samsung Next“We think Lynk’s end-to-end platform is in a good position to grow by helping companies start and manage their businesses without high costs and time-consuming operational challenges.”
