Merchant Warehouse is known for its fantastic customer service, consistent integrity, honesty and expansive capabilities in providing advanced processing solutions to their users. They recently won the ISO of the year award for 2009, given by the ETA (Electronic Transactions Association). The ETA is an international trade association that focuses on influencing, monitoring, and helping shape companies that cover the large breadth of responsibilities managed in the payment industry. The CEO of the ETA, Carla Balakgie, had this to say about the ramifications of Merchant Warehouse's prestigious award;

"We determined from the start, that the ISO of the Year award should go to a company that has the core characteristics of a pure ISO, and has demonstrated its excellence by a number of measures, including care for its reputation, investment in its people, savvy application of technology, great customer service and, of course, consistent sales growth and retention. In other words, we wanted to honor the kind of company any one of us would be happy and proud to be a part of."

StudioCloud is happy to provide this top notch payment gateway option to our customers, and hope you will enjoy the vast capabilities Merchant Warehouse will provide you.
