The Canadian Chamber of Commerce – a champion of small businesses through more than 450 local chambers representing more than 200,000 Canadian businesses – has selected Elavon to be its referral partner, providing members a simple, secure and reliable way to accept payments from their customers.
Elavon has operated in Canada since 2005, helping businesses evolve with the changing purchasing preferences of customers, regulatory and security requirements and emerging technology that helps them run their businesses more efficiently.
Small and medium-sized businesses will be able to take advantage of Elavon’s advanced acquiring capabilities as well as flexible tools for debit and credit card processing that can be tailored to their needs. Businesses will also benefit from a seamless payments experience through a single point of integration helping to increase acceptance, improve customer experience and reduce fraud.
“We are proud to serve businesses in Canada, particularly in this time when getting back to business has never been more important,” said Mia Huntington, executive vice president, Digital and Associations, at Elavon. “Demand for contactless payment options is high, along with the need for simple and secure checkout processes that integrate into other critical business software. We are ready to help businesses meet these demands – worry free.”
