    Co-op City Businesses Are Eliminating Processing Fees. Yours Can Too.

    Co-op City is one of the largest residential developments in the United States — over 15,000 units and 50,000 residents who do their shopping, dining, and services within walking distance. The retail businesses serving that captive market are paying 2.5–3.5% of every card transaction to processors. Scaler Pay installs a compliant cash discount program for your Co-op City business — terminal, signage, and processing included — so accepting cards costs you nothing. Payment processing services provided through licensed processing partners.

    A Co-op City business processing $50,000/month in card transactions saves $1,250–$1,750/month on a cash discount program — up to $21,000/year. For a business with a stable, captive customer base, those are compounding annual savings.

    [02]_The processing drain

    Co-op City businesses are paying $600–$2,500/month in processing fees they can legally eliminate.

    • 01A Co-op City restaurant or diner doing $65k/month in card sales pays $1,625–$2,275/month to card networks — $19,500–$27,300/year on an expense that's entirely optional.
    • 02A grocery, pharmacy, or retail store processing $40k/month in cards loses $1,000–$1,400/month — $12,000–$16,800/year — to processors regardless of how consistently the Co-op City customer base shops.
    • 03Co-op City's captive, loyal retail market means card volume is high and predictable. That predictability amplifies the cost of staying on standard processing rates.
    • 04Cash discount programs are already running at Bronx businesses across the borough. Businesses still on standard rates are funding competitors' margin advantage.
    • 05For most Co-op City businesses, the program pays for itself within the first few days of operation.
