        Papa Johns

        “The rates and service from all has been amazing. We were also provided with an online web portal where we can see card transactions immediately as they happen in the salons. This allows us to check any shortages or errors that the salons report or we suspect instantly.

        I would recommend looking into this service from FPMS for ease of operation and savings from the credit & debit card rates”
