Increased consumer awareness of environmentally friendly solutions like water-saving appliances, as well as smart technology and expansion into HVAC and more will boost opportunities for plumbers. More opportunities will lead to higher revenues, both in terms of size of individual tickets and number of customers, which will likely prompt a need for more solutions to accepting payment. With the Multiple Check and Check Guarantee services, Cross-Check can help plumbers accept larger checks with full knowledge that the payment will be securely deposited in their accounts.

There are several factors to suggest prices for both new and used cars will continue to rise well into 2022 from the record levels already reached this year. At an average in 2021 of $45,000 for new cars and $25,000 for used cars - and rising - many consumers will likely find it either unpalatable or even impossible to buy a new car. That is great news for auto repair shops. CrossCheck can help seal the deal with sensible payment options as cash-strapped consumers will be increasingly likely to pay for repairs, rather than throw their older cars on the scrap heap.

A recent study by the Federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has determined that the issuance of credit cards has declined significantly since the start of the COVID pandemic.

It is common knowledge that furniture sales spike immediately after the holidays as stores slash prices in preparation of new styles and inventory that typically arrive in January and February. When store owners put out the large “For Sale” signs, tie balloons to their front façade (not to mention placing the occasional inflatable sky dancer in the parking lot), they are hoping for a rush so they can clear out the sales floor ahead of new inventory arrivals.

After months of hard work, the collaboration between many departments, and drinking copious amounts of coffee — CrossCheck, Inc. is proud to introduce the newly designed www.Cross-Check.com website! Launching a new website is an exciting moment for any company, but it's more than updated graphics and newly designed widgets. We wanted to make sure that returning users would experience the same functionality they've become accustomed to and new/returning visitors would have an easier time navigating the site. A few of the most significant changes we made were to the home page, the ISO & Resellers Portal, and the services/industries pages. We've updated these pages to be easier to navigate and we've consolidated the content. We've also added the CrossCheck Mobile Pay page to our website. CrossCheck Mobile Pay is an application that allows merchants to process/guarantee checks from anywhere with a smart device.

When it comes to finding modern ways to build passive income, using paper checks to create a new revenue stream might seem like a far-fetched idea. However, as an Independent Sales Organization (ISO) you can build a lifetime of residuals by connecting merchants with check services. For every lead you drive towards the company you're partnered with, you can receive a percentage of residual income for every closed sale. Income from a closed sale is paid for the lifetime of the account. You can depend on payments from established companies like CrossCheck, Inc. that haven’t missed a single payment to an ISO since its inception in 1983.
