About Us

FUN AND BUSINESS CAN MIX! We are a local, family-owned and operated Merchant Services and business solutions brokerage firm. Much like an independent insurance agency who is able to shop price and product and make the best recommendation for the insured, we have researched the best business solution providers in our industry and bring those options to our merchants. We love what we do and have a passion for the satisfaction and happiness of our clients. We have over a decade of experience helping merchants process payments in the most cost effective and efficient ways.

Our Team

Independent Merchant Brokers LLC

Sam Rice

Owner & Merchant Consultant

After 25 years of success in the construction industry, in 2009 he began a new adventure in business consulting and Merchant Services. Being on the side of owning and running a small construction business for so many years, he understands the pains and challenges of feeling over-charged and under-served by business solution providers.

He resolved to take that experience and use it to help merchants get needed services at reasonable prices. After working strictly for one company for the first year, Sam quickly identified flaws in their business model: limitation of products, lack of service, and loss of potential clients by only being able to offer one company’s solutions.

He recognized the potential of being able to offer the services of multiple sources of solutions for the merchant’s needs. Almost all merchant service providers neglect what the merchant is looking for: versatility and cost-effective strategies to most productively run and succeed in their businesses. Not finding that in the corporate position he held, Sam left his job and started Independent Merchant Brokers LLC.

We Take a Holistic Approach

We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. We know that every business and organization has different needs, so we work with you to find out what those are before recommending a solution. Merchant satisfaction is our top priority!

What Our clients Are Saying

★★★★★

I've worked with Jonathan at Independent Merchant Brokers for credit and debit card processing solutions for both my clients and myself. Independent Merchant Brokers has made me reevaluate what I look for in merchant services. As a representative for their client's, they are able to put their client's needs first and secure fair and quality services. We were able to save time and money by trusting Independent Merchant Brokers. We will continue to recommend their services to our clients!

★★★★★

We've been with IMB for nearly eight years and have always been impressed with how responsive and eager to assist Sam and Caleb are! They're committed to small business solutions and no issue is too big or small for them to take the time to help us navigate the sometimes murky world of merchant processing. From on-site set up to ongoing maintenance, working with a local company like IMB has been (and will continue to be) such a pleasure!
