Small Business PaymentsInsights
U.S. small businesses are often heralded as the engines of job creation and entrepreneurial activity. Yet small businesses are frequently the orphan business line in many financial institutions and payment providers, underappreciated and poorly served. Mercator Advisory Group’s Small Business Payments and Banking Survey provides data and expert analysis on the small business payments and banking market in the United States through a series of three annual Insight Summary Reports based on a national survey conducted annually among business owners, leaders, and decision makers at U.S. small businesses whose revenues are between $500,000 and $10 million per year.
