Strategy
With a focus on the global Payments industry, TSG guides more than 40 of the top 50 merchant acquirers, including 9 of the top 10. We have worked with the top 6 global card networks, countless financial institutions, dozens of leading private equity and investment banks, and a growing segment of software players.
International
TSG regularly helps clients on their global initiatives and has worked with clients across six continents. From creating new technology platforms and increasing acceptance, to new market penetration strategies, we understand what it takes to grow.
Risk Management and Compliance
TSG has extensive capabilities to help clients manage merchant portfolio risk and to mitigate potential card network compliance issues. We are one of only a few approved vendors that can complete Global Acquirer Risk Standards (GARS) and Prepaid Issuer Risk Program (PIRP) reviews.
Payments Monetization
Contrary to what many payment experts will say, there are a variety of ways to monetize payments with differing models, each with its own set of rules/regulations, risks, and rewards. Getting into payment processing and monetizing payment volumes is not a simple task; however, it is potentially very profitable.
B2B Payments
Understanding how to optimize commercial card payments is key to capturing the B2B payments market. The ability to reduce B2B suppliers’ collection efforts and costs associated with card payments will make you and the services you offer invaluable.
Contract Renegotiation/RFP Process
Long before a contract expires is the right time to “shop the market”. Going out for a competitive bid through a Request for Proposal (RFP) or Request for Information (RFI) is the ideal process to bring the best economic results and preferred partner.
POS Hardware/Software Integration
TSG can complete a review and assessment of all types of payments platforms and product offerings, from features and functionality to scalability, ensuring you can match market demands.
