We are currently unable to locate any MSH Merchant Services reviews that accuse the company of being a scam or ripoff. In fact, there appear to be no MSH Merchant Services reviews across all consumer protection websites. This seems to indicate that the customer support offered by MSH is responsive and capable, but it is also possible that the company’s processor receives the bulk of its complaints. If you have your own MSH Merchant Services review to make, please do so in the comments below.
We have not found any outstanding class-action lawsuits or FTC complaints filed against MSH Merchant Services. Dissatisfied clients who wish to pursue a non-litigious course of action against the company should consider reporting it to the relevant supervisory organizations.
The MSH Merchant Services website lists a phone number, but it is unclear whether this is a dedicated customer support line. This lack of support options is a far cry from providers who offer great customer service.
Though the company’s customer support could improve, in the absence of any complaints about this company, we are awarding MSH Merchant Services an “A” rating in this category.

BBB Reports | 0 |
MSH Merchant Services is not an accredited business of the Better Business Bureau and currently maintains an “A+” grade at this time of review. Within the last 36 months, 0 complaints have been filed on the BBB. At the time of a last review, an affiliated company of MSH, WRG Services, had its own BBB profile with 3 complaints showing. WRG Services was at some point acquired by Payment Alliance International, which means that MSH may also be partnered with Payment Alliance International in some way. This potential relationship is unclear at this time, and we will not factor it into our rating for MSH Merchant Services.
Given the company’s low complaints total, we are inclined to agree with the BBB’s rating and award MSH Merchant Services an “A” in this category.

There is very little publicly available information about the standard MSH Merchant Services contract. The company’s website does not advertise any specific terms, and although it’s likely that MSH relies on a larger processor for its processing network, it’s currently unclear which processor that might be. There are no complaints online that mention MSH’s contract terms, so it’s probable that most of the company’s clients are satisfied with their agreements.
In the absence of any real information, we are awarding MSH an “A” in this category. If you have any knowledge of the standard MSH contract, please leave that information in the comment section of this review.

MSH appears to market itself primarily through its website, and it is currently unclear whether the company employs independent sales agents to market its services. The company’s website seems to claim that it partners with ISOs and MSPs, but the language isn’t clear enough to verify this. We are currently unable to locate any negative MSH Merchant Services reviews that mention the sales team, so it appears as though the company’s agents generally do a good job of disclosing and describing contract terms. The company also does not appear to engage in any deceptive advertising tactics in its official materials.
Despite a lack of clear information about the company, MSH Merchant Services rates as an above-average credit card processing provider by our standards. The company is showing no complaints, which leads us to score it well by default. Readers are advised to bear in mind that this high rating was assigned in response to the absence of incriminating evidence rather than the presence of positive information.
