Estimates only. This tool uses published 2026 card-brand and processor rates and a typical effective rate for your volume — it does not know your card mix, your average ticket, or your current junk fees, so it cannot tell you your real number. Your statement can. The free savings check reads it in seconds.

Two things worth knowing before anyone quotes you: surcharges can never be applied to debit, prepaid, or PIN debit cards — even when they carry a Visa or Mastercard logo — and Visa caps surcharging at 3%. Any program that ignores either of those is not compliant. Dual pricing is legal in all 50 states and is what we set up.

How it works

From one statement to near-zero processing costs in four steps

No pressure at any step. If it doesn't save you money, we'll say so — that's the whole point of starting with your real numbers.

01

Send a statement

We read your current processing statement and show you what you'd keep each month, or tell you you're already fine — about 10 minutes, no obligation.

02

Choose your plan

Pick cash discount (the card price covers processing) or interchange plus. We explain both clearly so you pick what fits your business.

03

Quick application

We submit your merchant application together. A valid ID, voided check, and three months of statements. About 5 minutes.

04

Go live in 48 hrs

Approved in 24–48 hours. Your terminal ships — buy it outright or rent it month to month. You're live and saving, with one rep you can call directly.

Pricing

Three ways to save

Every business is different. We'll help you find the right fit — so more of every sale goes back into your growth.

Most popular

Cash Discount

Card-paying customers cover the processing cost through the card price. You keep a small fixed monthly account fee, quoted in writing.

  • $0 in processing fees
  • Legal in all 50 states
  • Compliance signage provided
  • Best for in-person businesses
  • Buy or rent your terminal — never a lease

Interchange Plus

The most transparent model — interchange rate plus a small fixed markup. No hidden tiers.

  • Card-brand costs passed through at cost
  • One fixed markup, in writing
  • Every line itemized on your statement
  • Best for high-volume merchants
  • No bundled pricing

Mobile & eCommerce

Accept payments anywhere — Tap to Pay, QR codes, online checkout, and recurring billing.

  • Tap to Pay (no hardware)
  • QR code payments
  • Online checkout
  • ACH / eCheck
  • Recurring billing
POS Systems · Technology

The right point-of-sale for your industry — not a one-size-fits-all box

Square treats a bar, a boutique, and a liquor store the same. We don't. We match your business to a POS built for how you actually operate — and pair it with processing built around cash and card pricing.

Restaurants & Food Service

Total Touch POS

A restaurant system that keeps taking orders even when the internet goes down — hybrid cloud + on-site, so a Wi-Fi outage never stops your kitchen.

  • Split checks any way, every time
  • Bar tabs with card pre-authorization
  • Built-in staff timekeeping (ADP-ready)
  • Cloud reporting from your phone, anywhere
  • Software cost waived when paired with our processing
Bars & High-Volume Venues

Union POS

Built for packed nights. Guests order and pay from their phones, your staff covers more tables, and the system keeps up with a packed bar.

  • Guests order and reorder from their phones
  • Fewer trips per table on busy nights
  • Built-in loyalty program at no cost to you
  • Compliant dual pricing built in
  • Manufacturer support included, plus your Oluwa Group rep
Retail & Liquor Stores

Korona POS

Retail-first POS with serious inventory tools and no long-term contract. Ask us about Korona's free trial before you commit.

  • No long-term contract
  • Liquor-store tools: age verification & customer app
  • Inventory built for thousands of SKUs
  • Self-checkout kiosk options
  • Works with our zero-cost processing
Online Ordering

Your Own Ordering Page

Delivery marketplaces charge 15–30% per order depending on your plan. Keep them — they bring you new customers. Move your regulars onto your own page instead, for a flat monthly fee with no per-order commission.

  • Orders flow straight to your POS
  • No per-order commission on direct orders
  • Your branding, your customer data
  • Pickup & delivery ready
  • Pairs with Total Touch for restaurants

Industries

Where we start, by type of business

Every business pays something to take cards. What changes is where the biggest leak is — so that's where we start.

Keep your regulars off the delivery apps

Delivery marketplaces bring new customers, and they charge for it. We move your repeat orders to your own ordering page and set up cash and card pricing at the counter.

  • Your own ordering page, flat monthly fee, no per-order commission
  • Orders go straight to the POS
  • Bar tabs with card pre-authorization

Square, Toast, or us?

An honest side-by-side

Square and Toast are good products, and for some businesses they're the right answer. Here's where each one fits, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

Oluwa Group
Square
Toast
How you're charged
Priced from your own statement: cash and card pricing, or interchange plus.
A flat rate on every sale: 2.6% + 15¢ in person, 3.3% + 30¢ online.
Toast's own processing is required. About 2.49% + 15¢ in person on the standard plan.
Leaving
A standard 24-month agreement, with no early termination fee on most business types. We confirm yours in writing before you sign.
No contract.
Typically a two-year contract. Leaving early can cost $1,000–$5,000+ plus any hardware balance.
Who answers
One named person in Cleveland, on a direct line.
Online help center and support team.
Support team.
Best fit
Steady card volume: restaurants, retail, salons, and businesses other processors won't approve.
Very small or occasional sellers. It's often the cheapest option there, and we'll tell you if that's you.
Restaurants that love it. If you're mid-contract, we'll note your renewal date and check back before it.

Square and Toast figures from their published pricing and independent 2026 reviews, verified August 2026. Prices change; check current terms before you decide.

Industry-matched POS for restaurants, bars, and retail, plus AI-powered tools like our instant statement analyzer. Modern technology, set up for you, explained in plain English.

Our promise

No reviews to buy. Just a straight deal.

Oluwa Group exists to help businesses build and scale — starting with the money you're already earning. We're a newer business, and we'd rather earn your trust honestly than show you stock photos and made-up quotes.

"I started Oluwa Group because I watched local owners hand a slice of every sale to processors who never picked up the phone. My deal is simple: I show you your real numbers, you keep more of them, and I don't earn unless I actually save you money. No surprise fees, no pressure, and no early termination fee on most business types."

Questions, answered

What business owners ask us most

Is the cash discount program actually legal?+

Yes — cash discounting is legal in all 50 states when set up correctly. We provide the required signage and configure your terminal for full compliance. Customers always see the price before they pay, and those who pay with cash or debit can avoid the service fee. Full breakdown in our guide: What is dual pricing?

Is there a contract, and what does it cost to leave?+

You sign Kurv's standard 24-month merchant agreement, which renews automatically, and we walk you through it before you do. For most business types there's no early termination fee, so if it ever stops making sense, you can leave without a penalty. We confirm which applies to you, in writing, before you sign. We'd rather keep you by saving you money than by locking you in.

What does it cost to switch, and what about the terminal?+

You choose: buy the terminal outright, or rent it on a month-to-month plan you can cancel any time — we never put you on a lease. Setup and application fees are quoted in writing before you sign anything, and they're often the first thing we waive. With dual pricing, your processing fees are $0; you pay a fixed monthly account fee, quoted in writing.

How long does approval and setup take?+

Most merchants are approved within 24–48 hours. Once approved, your terminal ships out and you're typically live the same week.

Will this work with my current POS or systems?+

In most cases, yes. Kurv supports countertop terminals, Tap to Pay, QR codes, online checkout, and virtual terminals. And if your current POS is the problem, we offer industry-matched POS systems for restaurants, bars, and retail — often with the software cost waived when paired with our processing. During your free savings check we'll confirm exactly what fits your setup.

What do you need from me to get a real quote?+

Just a recent processing statement (or a screenshot of your Square/Stripe dashboard). We'll show you what you're paying line by line, and what you'd keep — no obligation.
