How we Helped Zulio?

Zulio is a pioneering startup seeking to empower businesses to take control of processing fees and transactions. WIth many years of experience working with business and point-of-sale services, Zulio’s founder, Chase Shaw, furnishes businesses with tools to give customers payment choices without sacrificing profitability.

Challenges

For small businesses, processing fees have long been a significant financial burden. Accepting card payments through traditional processors comes with steep fees, leaving small businesses feeling like they're subjected to an additional "gross income tax" just to get paid for the services they provide. These high transaction costs can significantly impact the profitability of small businesses, contrasting their ability to thrive in a competitive market.

Our Approach

Recognizing this dilemma, our team leveraged robust APIs and our payment integration acumen to construct an innovative solution. Our priority was equipping businesses to preserve margins without limiting customer payment options. Extensive testing and collaboration ensured Zulio aligned with the practical needs of small business owners.

Solution Development

The resulting platform allows customers to choose fee-free cash payments or convenient card payments with a small surcharge. Businesses receive their full profit either way. This key innovation is accompanied by a comprehensive suite of payment features. Businesses can facilitate on-the-go payments, send invoices seamlessly, access valuable financial reporting, and enjoy automatic deposits. Zulio is more than just a fee management solution; it's a holistic payment platform.

Results & Impact

Within months of deployment, Zulio furnished meaningful savings for early adopter clients across retail sectors. Enhanced transparency and choice improved customer satisfaction. Automation boosted back-office efficiency.

Lessons Learned

This project affirmed the immense value of maximizing choice and flexibility on both ends of financial transactions. Our team also gained invaluable insight into the real-world pain points involved in payment processing and accounts receivable. These lessons are already being channeled into optimizing the product.

Conclusion

Armed with Zulio, small businesses can finally seize control of processing expenses while retaining payment flexibility. The solution also unlocks operational efficiencies through automated workflows. As Zulio evolves, our team remains dedicated to transforming payments for all business owners.
