Statement Fee
Indigo is very transparent regarding contract terms. The company offers interchange-plus pricing and promises never to raise your rates, nor charge any up-front startup or early termination fees. Indigo resells merchant accounts services of First Data and Chase Merchant Services.
Although it does not lease equipment, it does partner with various POS equipment vendors that offer non-cancelable equipment leases for durations ranging from 24-48 months.
Indigo also offers an interest-free four-month payment option without any additional fees to purchase POS equipment. We are firm believers in the outright purchase of any equipment merchants need as the lease is a much more expensive prospect.
