Our Story
In 2006, our founders Richard Ross and Brett Sturm set out to change the payment industry after witnessing unethical business practices like forced buyouts, lost commissions, and raising merchant rates. They founded EPSG with a commitment to honest business and providing better contracts for both sales partners and merchants.
Richard and Brett’s focus on transparency and innovation set EPSG apart, attracting seasoned industry professionals to join the team. Sales partners, treated as true collaborators, turned to EPSG for building successful portfolios, while merchants trusted EPSG with their business.
Today, we have evolved into Echelon—a forward-thinking payment processor with integrity always at our core. We offer a robust suite of payment processing solutions with full integration capabilities.
Our focus is now on future growth, with an expert team in place to expand our regional network and diversify our product offering.
