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.
While some merchants may have achieved marginal cost reductions or incremental sales through targeted interventions, in CMSPI’s experience, many of these merchants are still losing millions of customers and paying higher fees as a result; some may not be doing enough, others may be doing nothing at all, and some may be trusting their payments partners more than they should. The outcome: their payments strategy is not fully optimal.
The threat of fraud is hard to forecast and even harder to address. With more payment methods in customers’ wallets, increasing digital volumes, and demand for speedier checkouts, tackling fraud requires a balance between boosting approval rates, minimizing fraud losses, and avoiding false declines.
From the largest retailers in the U.S. to nascent upstarts, all merchants are suffering from high costs and lost customers due to inefficiencies in the payments supply chain. In this blog, CMSPI’s experts weigh-in on the biggest challenges facing all merchants and address the ways businesses can take back control of their costs, approval rates, and chargebacks.
