A Hidden Revenue Opportunity for Nonprofits: Turning Credit Card Processing Into Monthly Support

Nonprofits are always looking for sustainable ways to increase revenue without constantly launching new campaigns or asking donors to give more. One opportunity that many organizations overlook is hiding in plain sight: credit card processing. Every business that accepts credit cards pays processing fees as a normal cost of doing business. What if a portion of those unavoidable fees could be redirected to support your nonprofit—without costing the business anything extra?

That’s exactly the idea behind Telos Processing. Telos is a payment processing provider that allows businesses to process credit card payments just like they do now, often at the same rates or better. The difference is what happens behind the scenes. Telos gives 50% of its own processing profit to a nonprofit chosen by the business—turning everyday transactions into ongoing support for a cause the business cares about.

For nonprofits, this creates a unique opportunity. Instead of asking supporters for another donation, you can simply ask a different question: “Do you know any business owners who accept credit cards?” Many of your board members, donors, and volunteers either run businesses themselves or have strong connections with business leaders. If those businesses switch their credit card processing to Telos, they continue paying the same type of fees they already pay today—but a percentage of those fees now flows to your nonprofit every month.

The result is a true win-win. Businesses get competitive processing rates and strong customer support, while nonprofits gain a steady stream of funding generated through everyday commerce. It’s a simple idea with powerful potential: turning routine credit card transactions into ongoing impact for your mission.
