Where it shows up

A card declines at 2 a.m.

Revenue Protect still pays on the next payout, even if we are unable to charge the final amount. We work to collect behind the scenes.

A compressor fails in year 4

Swappable refrigeration means a module swap, not a disassembled machine on site. Micromart covers the swap, parts and labor for 5 years.

A property manager asks for certs

UL, NAMA, NSF, PCI. The best locations often require certified, reliable products.

We moved 14 units off HAHA hardware in one quarter. The payout report is the first one I don't have to double-check.

The sticker price is the smallest number

Over five years, the increase in conversion, the processing fees, cost of repairs, and unpaid transactions dwarf the $1,296 hardware gap.
