Company Summary

In a credit card transaction, at least 7 middlemen get between a merchant and their money. This outdated system costs merchants 2-5% of transaction amount. ArgoPay eliminates all of these intermediaries when you use ArgoCredit, a virtual credit card issued to the consumer when they download the ArgoPay app. So merchants get 0% processing fee without the need for any additional hardware and consumers earn rewards and get exclusive local deals.
