Why partner with Pulse

A new revenue line without a new business unit.

Most software platforms leave payment revenue on the table -- sending merchants to a third-party processor and earning nothing. Pulse changes that with a full-service partner model: we bring the sales team, run the underwriting and risk, and pay you a share of every transaction your merchants process. Your product stays your product; Pulse provides everything else.

What you get

Everything it takes to monetize payments -- handled by Pulse.

Zero cost to add payments

No setup fees, no monthly SaaS minimums, no per-seat pricing. You add a payments revenue line without adding cost.

  • No onboarding or integration fee
  • No monthly platform minimums
  • No per-merchant or per-seat charges
  • Revenue share starts at first settlement

We bring the sales team

Pulse in-house reps sell payments to your existing customers and get them approved on your platform -- you don't hire or manage a single rep.

  • Dedicated Pulse reps work your customer base
  • We handle every sales conversation and close
  • Approved merchants board directly to your platform
  • You see pipeline status in your Pulse dashboard

We carry the risk

Pulse underwrites every merchant and holds the processing liability. Your platform takes on none of the financial exposure.

  • Pulse is the underwriter of record
  • Processing liability stays with us, not you
  • Risk monitoring and chargebacks handled by Pulse
  • Your platform is never a co-signor on merchant accounts

Go live fast

Embed with our API or a white-label checkout. Most partners go live in weeks, not quarters.

  • REST API with full sandbox environment
  • White-label checkout for no-code embed
  • Pulse onboarding team guides your integration
  • Go live in as few as two weeks
  • No processor contracts to negotiate

Revenue share, paid monthly

Earn a share of net payments revenue across your whole merchant base -- calculated automatically and paid by direct deposit, with zero reconciliation on your end.

  • Share calculated on net payments revenue
  • Paid monthly by direct deposit
  • Full per-merchant transaction detail in dashboard
  • No manual reconciliation or spreadsheets

One integration, every processor

Pulse connects to Fiserv, NMI, TSYS, First Data, Stripe, and Maverick behind the scenes. You integrate once and never touch processor relationships.

  • Fiserv, NMI, TSYS, First Data, Stripe, Maverick supported
  • Single API surface regardless of processor
  • Pulse manages all processor contracts and credentials
  • Processor redundancy and failover built in
  • Switch processors without touching your code

How it works

Embed once. Pulse does the rest.

    Embed payments

    Drop Pulse into your platform with our API or a white-label checkout. Sandbox is available day one.

  2. Step 2

    We sell it

    Pulse in-house reps work your customer base, get merchants approved, and handle every conversation from first touch to boarding.

  3. Step 3

    We run it

    Pulse boards, underwrites, and monitors every merchant -- and handles compliance, chargebacks, and risk for the life of the account.

  4. Step 4

    You earn

    Collect your revenue share on every transaction across your base, paid monthly by direct deposit. Zero reconciliation on your side.

Outcomes

Revenue share that scales with your platform.

A new revenue line, no headcount

Monetize the payments your customers already make -- without building a payments team, a processor relationship, or underwriting capacity. Pulse provides all of it.

Your brand, our infrastructure

Payments look and feel native to your product on every screen, statement, and notification. Pulse runs everything underneath.

Transparent monthly payouts

See every merchant, every transaction, and your earnings in one dashboard. Paid on a fixed monthly cycle -- no invoices, no guesswork.

Built for vertical SaaS

Brightline, a vertical SaaS partner processing $18.4M/mo, earns a 35% revenue share -- about $45,990 per month -- and that number grows as more of their customer base activates.

Who it's for

Built for software platforms that want to own payments revenue.

  • Vertical SaaS platforms with customers who already process card payments
  • ISVs whose merchants need a native checkout or billing UI inside your product
  • Marketplaces that want to capture payment margin without becoming a payments company
  • Product teams that do not want to build processor relationships, underwriting, or risk ops
  • Platforms with low self-serve activation who need a dedicated sales motion to convert their base
