Compliant dual pricing that lets local businesses, contractors, and HOA communities keep nearly every dollar they process — with a partner down the street who actually answers the phone.
Thanks — your request is in. Send your most recent processing statement to [hello@getfirmfooting.com] and we'll have your line-by-line breakdown ready when we talk.
Most merchants are quietly renting a slice of their margin to card networks every month. We fix that with a compliant pricing structure and a partner who treats your P&L like it's their own.
Compliant dual pricing — a discount for cash and ACH, never a surprise surcharge — can offset virtually all of your card-processing cost. Structured to align with California's SB 478.
You get a named contact in San Diego for setup, training, and support — someone who knows your corridor and picks up when something needs fixing, not a ticket queue three time zones away.
From dual-pricing terminals for contractors to recurring dues and assessment collection for management companies — tuned to how community associations actually operate in California.
In person, online, over the phone, and on a schedule — terminals, a virtual terminal, hosted payment pages, ACH / e-check, and recurring billing, all under one roof and one statement.
Firm Footing grew out of a trusted network of contractors and community associations across Southern California. We build for the businesses we already stand alongside.
Roofers, landscapers, painters, plumbers, and the vendors on HOA referral lists.
Collect dues, assessments, and one-time fees without the paper chase.
Restaurants, retail, clinics, and professional offices across the county.
No pressure, no jargon. Just a clear look at your numbers and a plan you can see straight through.
Share a recent processing statement, or just your current rates. We read the fine print — the padding, the junk fees, the mystery line items — so you don't have to.
A tailored, compliant setup: the right hardware or gateway, dual-pricing signage and staff scripts, and a rate structure you can actually understand.
Go live with local support on call. Watch the processing line on your P&L shrink — and, because the structure holds, stay shrunk.
