According to public complaints filed against ElitePay Global, Andrew (“Andy”) Bentley is the former president of sales at ElitePay Global and the brother of Brian Bentley, who is the manager of International Payment Services. Alongside Brian and Adam Bentley, he served as an executive-level employee at PrimePay Global and ElitePay Global for the duration of their operations. There is also some evidence linking the Bentleys and other former ElitePay Global employees to Ironwood Payments and One For Merchants, two newer merchant account providers that came into existence around the time that ElitePay Global became inactive. Ironwood Payments has since demonstrated that it has severed ties with the Bentleys and terminated all former ElitePay Global employees from its staff. Andy Bentley is believed to reside in Providence, Utah.
