Bonita Payments Contract Terms
There is no publicly available information about the standard Bonita Payments contract at this time aside from the fact that the company prominently markets interchange-plus pricing. It is likely that the company customizes its pricing and terms according to each merchant’s business type, location, and processing history. The company’s wide range of preferred merchant types means that it could offer long-term equipment leases for certain merchants’ needs.
No Red Flags
The total absence of Bonita Payments complaints about the company’s contract terms merits an “A” in this category, but it should be noted that we are assigning this grade without any verified knowledge of specific pricing. It is difficult to assess at this time whether Bonita Payments’ contract terms are competitive with the cheapest merchant accounts. We also encourage merchants to check out our list of the providers of the best merchant accounts.
