Merchant Acquiring
Merchant acquiring is a critical element of credit card payment transactions processing. Acquirers enable merchants to accept card payments by acting as a link between merchants, issuers, and payment networks. They provide authorization, settlement, dispute management, and information services to merchants. To keep up with the high demand, merchant acquiring companies need to have savvy, forward-thinking executives leading their teams, and experienced and skilled acquirers out in the field. At IMPACT Payments Recruiting, we provide our clients with both.
Acquiring Recruitment Services
With the increasing demand for transactions to be real-time, flexible, and scalable, acquirers often encounter “build vs. buy” decisions, technology assessments, and platform evaluations—often while being limited by their existing systems. Because of the very specific skills and industry knowledge needed to make these vital business decisions, finding candidates with this expertise can be a real challenge. Instead of taking on the task of sourcing, recruiting, and hiring executive talent yourself, trust the experts at IMPACT Payments Recruiting to do it for you.

We needed to hire some cornerstone employees for real-time payments to start our US operations. The IMPACT team quickly found and presented a number of qualified candidates and led me to two rock solid hires that were just what I required and good cultural fits. We could not have achieved quicker and better results without the IMPACT team’s industry knowledge, contacts, and recruiting expertise.

The team at IMPACT Payments Recruiting has worked with us on a number of hires that have been critical to our firm’s explosive growth over this past year. From Vice Presidents to senior level Partner Sales Executives their team brought payment space expertise, multiple qualified and engaged candidates, and human resource expertise to every hire we sourced through them.
The surprising value add was not only the strong candidates but that they enabled us to hone our own internal job requirements, expectations and job descriptions.
