What Merchants Are Saying
Bari Bloch
I have been using Paul at Bay State Merchant Services now for about 6 months and I’m sorry I did not make the switch sooner! Paul has been tremendously instrumental in making sure my operations are always up and running. He even brings me paper when I run out in my cc machine!! Highly recommend Bay State Merchant Services for your credit card processing needs!

Stephanie Whalen
Bay State Merchant Services by far is the most professional company I've worked with. Katherine is so knowledgeable in the latest processing products for your company. I haven't run into any problems. Their service department was so understanding and walked me through my question. I gave them a 5 star review would have given them 10 stars if they had that option.
