What clients say about CMSPI

With CMSPI, Boohoo secured a competitive advantage with our payments suppliers.

CMSPI helped us get a better understanding of how upcoming regulatory changes in the payments industry were going to affect us. I appreciated the clarity that CMSPI provided and the benchmarking analysis was something I am sure we would have struggled to be able to find elsewhere. Thanks to CMSPI, we now have complete confidence that Boohoo has secured competitive merchant acquiring charges with our provider and that we are fully benefitting from available interchange reductions.
