SFP’s Program Saves Irrigation Businesses Thousands Each Year
Time is money — and too often, irrigation companies lose both to outdated payment processes. That’s why FIS has partnered with Service First Processing (SFP) to deliver a program designed to streamline operations, improve cash flow, and put money back in your pocket.
Built for FIS Members
This program was created exclusively for irrigation professionals. As an FIS member, you receive:
- 10% annual rebate
- Free enhanced reporting ($120/year value)
- Dedicated industry support
- Free loaner equipment and a 60/90-day trial
- Expertly managed surcharging programs that cut or eliminate your processing costs
Smarter Integration, Real Savings
Whether you’re already using software or still managing payments manually, our solutions fit your business. We’ll integrate into your current systems — or provide the tools you need — to eliminate wasted hours and costly errors.
- Seamless Processing – Transactions post quickly and accurately.
- Real-Time Reporting – Instantly see where your business stands.
- Faster Payments – Improve cash flow without extra effort.
Save Hours Every Month
Re-entering invoices, chasing down payments, and reconciling reports eats away at productivity. With SFP’s automation, irrigation companies reclaim dozens of staff hours every month — time better spent serving customers and completing projects.
Stop Letting Fees Drain Your Profits
Credit card fees can take a big bite out of your margins. SFP offers surcharging programs that allow you to pass credit card fees back to customers legally and compliantly, helping to reduce or even eliminate your processing costs.
And we don’t just hand you the tools — we make sure your program is set up correctly and stays compliant:
- Debit vs. Credit Differentiation – Our system automatically recognizes debit cards (which can’t be surcharged) vs. credit cards (which can).
- Proper Disclosures – Ensuring customers are notified clearly and professionally.
- Rate Limits – Keeping surcharges within allowable percentages.
- Accurate Reporting – Full transparency so you’re always protected.
With SFP, you get the savings without the risk.
