Giving Back

If you need to accept credit cards, get a merchant account that does some good! Supporting the community of humankind is a founding tenet of Dharma Merchant Services. Giving back is a reflection of dharma: right intention, right action.

To do our part, we donate 50% of the annual profits we make on the credit card processing revenue on our merchant accounts. Because we know that there are many incredibly important organizations doing different types of work, we choose to donate to five different charities every year. We'll make our selections from the following five categories:

  • Environment

  • Social Justice

  • Healthcare

  • Arts/Education

  • Animal Rights

Each year, we update the charities we'll be donating to, and share our selections with our merchants. By choosing a few different non-profits each year, we are able to maximize the impact we make with our collective donations.

We also give back to our non-profit clients by:

  • Promoting those with charitable causes on our website.

  • Offering discounted pricing so that more money goes towards the cause, not overhead. If you think your favorite charity might be paying too much in credit card processing fees, please refer them to us!

  • Actively participating in our local communties by volunteering our time and financial support. We are committed to being of service to those we serve, and are proud to provide support to our community in as many ways as we can.
