Overview
National Payments is a Canadian merchant services provider headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, with a focus on the hospitality industry. The company was founded in 2008 and operates as a reseller of payment processing platforms and hardware, offering merchants point-of-sale terminals, mobile and tap-enabled card readers, virtual terminals, and e-commerce gateway tools.
Services and Industries Served
National Payments markets services to hotels, restaurants, retailers, and other business types across Canada. Reported products include the Converge payment gateway, Poynt smart terminals, TipTap mobile and contactless acceptance, and a Pay-By-Bank account-to-account payment option. The company describes hospitality and hotel front-desk processing as core areas of specialization.
Partnerships and Underlying Platforms
Public processor research identifies National Payments as a reseller of Elavon's processing platform, including the Converge gateway and conventional countertop terminals, as well as Worldline's Bambora payment software. These third-party platforms underlie much of the day-to-day card processing and gateway functionality the company offers to its merchants.
Pricing
Processing Rates
National Payments does not publish standard processing rates or fee schedules on its public website. Account pricing is reported by user reviews and expert content to be quoted on a per-merchant basis after a sales conversation, with variation based on business type, ticket size, monthly card volume, and the equipment package selected.
Contracts and Equipment
Specific contract length, monthly minimums, and early termination terms are not disclosed publicly. Because the company resells Elavon's processing platform, expert content has noted that equipment leases through Ladco Global Leasing may be offered alongside standard Elavon merchant agreements. Outright equipment purchase is generally a less costly alternative than long-term leasing for most merchants.
