Inside Square’s Reseller Strategy
What happens when one of the biggest names in payments decides to build a serious reseller channel? James Shepherd gets the answer directly from Mike Collins, who heads up Square’s reseller division.
They discuss why Square believes ISOs and agents can help it move further into the middle market, where Square sees significant opportunity. Mike also explains how the reseller experience works, from digital merchant onboarding to pricing and proposal support, co-selling, software demos, and ongoing partner support. Most importantly, he explains why Square’s technology is what he believes gives agents an edge in winning and retaining merchants.
The episode also includes Today in Payments with Patti Murphy, covering interchange legislation, ACH and P2P payment growth, small-business trends, and the increasing sophistication of fraudsters using AI and faster payment networks.
