Payment processing for Tribal enterprises
Sovara Pay refers Tribal enterprises to First Nationwide Payments, which provides the merchant account, for hotels, restaurants, retail, fuel and travel plazas, entertainment venues, and Tribal government services. Every outlet runs on one merchant relationship, with pricing disclosed in writing and documentation ready for your procurement process. Casino gaming transactions are not offered at this time.
Built for multi-venue operations
- Every point of sale: front desk, food and beverage, retail shops, spa, events, online booking and invoicing.
- Reporting: reporting comes from First Nationwide Payments’ merchant portal; we’ll walk you through it.
- Transparent pricing: interchange-plus pricing, so finance teams can check every fee against published network rates.
- Month-to-month terms: no long-term contract.
Ready for your procurement process
We respond to RFPs and vendor questionnaires, and we provide the documentation Tribal councils, finance departments and IT teams typically ask for.
- Written pricing schedule and sample statement
- Company information and processing-partner disclosures
- PCI DSS compliance questions, answered with First Nationwide Payments
- Implementation plan and timeline for each venue
A partner that respects sovereignty
We work with Tribal enterprises as sovereign governments and business owners. We help make sure contracts, reporting and support fit your government's and your enterprise's requirements. Merchant terms, including any agreed dispute or limited-waiver terms, come from First Nationwide Payments and its sponsor bank, reviewed with your counsel.
