REFERRAL PARTNER PROGRAM
Oracle Merchant Services
At Oracle Merchant Services, we believe that strong partnerships are the foundation of long term success in today's evolving business environment. Our Referral Partner Program is designed to create meaningful, revenue generating relationships with organizations that support and influence business communities at scale. Whether you represent a franchise system, a trade association, a chamber of commerce, or a small network of independent business owners, our program is built to deliver value, transparency, and measurable financial benefits to both your organization and your members.
We understand that your role is not just to connect businesses, but to elevate them. That is why our referral partner model goes far beyond simple commissions or transactional relationships. We position ourselves as a strategic partner that enhances your value proposition, strengthens your member offerings, and provides tangible economic advantages that your network can see and feel.
Our approach is simple in concept but powerful in execution. We provide your members with access to highly competitive payment processing solutions that are tailored to their specific industry, transaction volume, and operational needs. At the same time, we equip your organization with tools, incentives, and co branded opportunities that deepen engagement and create new revenue streams.
One of the key differentiators of the Oracle Merchant Services Referral Partner Program is our flexibility. We work with organizations of all sizes, from small groups of three businesses to large scale networks exceeding 400 or more members. This scalability allows us to customize our approach based on your structure, your goals, and the level of involvement you want to have in the program.
For smaller groups, we often take a hands on, consultative approach, working directly with each member to evaluate their current processing setup, identify inefficiencies, and implement solutions that reduce costs while improving performance. For larger organizations such as franchise systems and trade associations, we develop structured programs that can be rolled out across the entire network with consistent messaging, standardized benefits, and dedicated support channels.
Franchise Systems
Built for Every Scale
Franchise systems are one of the most impactful environments for our program. Franchise operators often face challenges related to consistency, cost control, and technology alignment across multiple locations. Oracle Merchant Services addresses these challenges by creating unified processing solutions that maintain brand standards while optimizing costs at the individual location level.
In addition to cost savings, we provide franchise systems with centralized reporting capabilities, streamlined onboarding processes, and dedicated account management. This allows franchisors to maintain visibility and control while empowering their operators with best in class tools and support.
Trade associations and business organizations benefit from our ability to enhance member value. In a competitive landscape where organizations are constantly looking for ways to attract and retain members, offering exclusive financial benefits can be a powerful differentiator. By partnering with Oracle Merchant Services, you can provide your members with access to reduced processing rates, transparent pricing structures, and industry specific solutions that directly impact their bottom line.
One of the most compelling aspects of our program is the ability to offer exclusive benefits that are not available to the general market. These benefits may include reduced rates, free equipment, no setup fees, contract or lease buyouts, and in many cases, cash incentives for switching. For qualified merchants, we also offer a name your rate program through June of 2026, allowing businesses to take a more active role in shaping their cost structure.
In addition to financial incentives, we place a strong emphasis on education and empowerment. We provide your members with access to resources, training, and ongoing support that help them better understand payment processing and make informed decisions. This educational component not only improves outcomes for individual businesses but also strengthens the overall credibility of your organization.
Another unique feature of our Referral Partner Program is our commitment to co branded initiatives. We work closely with our partners to develop customized campaigns, marketing materials, and outreach strategies that align with your brand and resonate with your audience. This includes co branded scholarship programs that support education, entrepreneurship, and community development.
These scholarship programs serve as both a philanthropic initiative and a marketing tool, allowing your organization to give back to the community while increasing visibility and engagement. By aligning financial benefits with social impact, we create a program that is both meaningful and sustainable.
Our internal infrastructure is designed to support these partnerships at scale. With a leadership team that brings over 100 years of combined experience in business, finance, and technology, we have the expertise to navigate complex environments and deliver consistent results. Our strong ties to Silicon Valley further enhance our ability to innovate, adapt, and implement solutions that keep our partners ahead of the curve.
From a technology standpoint, we have invested heavily in core systems that are built to benefit our clients directly. These systems allow us to streamline onboarding, automate processes, and provide real time insights that improve decision making. This investment ensures that our partners and their members have access to reliable, scalable solutions that evolve with their needs.
Communication and transparency are central to our program. We provide clear reporting, regular updates, and open lines of communication so that you always know how the partnership is performing. Our goal is to create a relationship based on trust, where both parties are aligned and working toward shared objectives.
30–70% reduction in processing costs
In terms of financial impact, the results speak for themselves. It is not uncommon for businesses that switch to Oracle Merchant Services to reduce their processing costs by 30 to 70 percent. These savings can be reinvested into operations, marketing, staffing, or other growth initiatives, creating a ripple effect that benefits the entire network.
For organizations, the program also creates an additional revenue stream through referral incentives and ongoing residuals. This allows you to generate income while providing value to your members, creating a win win scenario that strengthens your position in the market.
We also recognize that every organization has different priorities and levels of engagement. Some partners prefer a fully managed approach where we handle all aspects of the program, while others want to take a more active role in promoting and managing the relationship. Our flexible model allows us to adapt to your preferences and provide the level of support that best fits your needs.
At Oracle Merchant Services, our mission is to connect the commerce of the world and the Americas on the axis of financial transactions. Our Referral Partner Program is a direct extension of this mission, bringing together businesses, organizations, and communities in a way that creates value at every level.

Testimonial
As a long standing member of the a regional Chamber of Commerce, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of service providers over the years. Very few have delivered the level of value, professionalism, and measurable results that we have experienced through our partnership with Oracle Merchant Services.
When we first explored the idea of offering a payment processing solution to our members, our primary goal was to find a partner that could genuinely reduce costs without introducing complexity or risk. Many of our members are small to mid sized businesses that operate on tight margins, so any solution we endorsed needed to be both effective and trustworthy.
From the initial conversation, it was clear that Oracle Merchant Services approached the partnership differently. They took the time to understand our organization, our members, and the challenges we face. Rather than offering a one size fits all solution, they developed a customized program that aligned with our goals and provided real, tangible benefits.
The results have exceeded our expectations. Many of our members have reported significant savings, with some reducing their processing costs by more than half. Beyond the financial impact, the level of support has been exceptional. Our members have access to a dedicated team that responds quickly and resolves issues efficiently, which has made a noticeable difference in their day to day operations.
One of the most valuable aspects of the partnership has been the co branded initiatives. The scholarship program we launched together has not only provided opportunities for local students but has also strengthened our connection with the community. It has given our members a sense of pride and involvement that goes beyond business.
Overall, partnering with Oracle Merchant Services has been one of the most impactful decisions our chamber has made in recent years. It has enhanced the value we provide to our members, created new opportunities for engagement, and delivered measurable financial benefits. I would highly recommend their program to any organization looking to elevate their offerings and support their business community in a meaningful way.

Overview
a retail jewelry kiosk franchise is a rapidly growing retail jewelry franchise specializing in high quality, affordable accessories sold through mall kiosks and high traffic retail environments. With over 75 locations across multiple states, the company faced increasing challenges related to payment processing costs, equipment consistency, and operational efficiency.
As the franchise expanded, it became clear that their existing payment processing setup was not scalable. Individual franchisees were working with different providers, resulting in inconsistent pricing, varying levels of service, and a lack of centralized reporting. This fragmentation created inefficiencies and made it difficult for corporate leadership to maintain oversight.
Challenges
The primary challenges faced by a retail jewelry kiosk franchise included high and inconsistent processing fees across locations, outdated and unreliable equipment in some kiosks, limited visibility into transaction data, and a lack of unified support. These issues were impacting both profitability and the overall customer experience.
Solution
Oracle Merchant Services partnered with a retail jewelry kiosk franchise to implement a comprehensive, franchise wide payment processing solution. The first step was a detailed analysis of existing processing statements across multiple locations. This allowed our team to identify inefficiencies and develop a standardized pricing model that reduced costs while maintaining flexibility for individual operators.
We then deployed modern, reliable payment hardware across all kiosks, ensuring consistency in performance and user experience. Each location was equipped with devices that supported fast, secure transactions, including contactless payments, which are particularly important in high traffic retail environments.
In addition to hardware upgrades, we implemented centralized reporting tools that provided corporate leadership with real time visibility into transaction data across all locations. This allowed for better decision making and improved operational control.

From an operational standpoint, the centralized reporting system provided valuable insights that were previously unavailable. Corporate leadership was able to identify trends, monitor performance, and make data driven decisions that supported continued growth.
The partnership between a retail jewelry franchise and Oracle Merchant Services demonstrates the value of a unified, strategic approach to payment processing. By addressing key challenges and implementing tailored solutions, we were able to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and support the continued expansion of the franchise.
This case study highlights how our Referral Partner Program can deliver meaningful results for franchise systems of all sizes. Through a combination of technology, expertise, and dedicated support, we help businesses achieve their goals and build a stronger foundation for long term success.
