Credit Card Processing Basics // BUSINESS 566

Sean Harper, CEO, FeeFighters

Thursday, September 1st from 8:00 - 9:30 pm 

You've designed an awesome product, and you've promoted it successfully. It's rapidly gaining interest, and people are eager to buy it. But how? You don't have a brick and mortar store, so cash is out of the question. The choices for credit card processing are endless, and even daunting. What are pricing structures? Processing fees? In fact, how does credit card processing even work? Enter FeeFighters. They established comparison shopping for credit card processing rates, and are dedicated to helping you understand terms like "interchange" and "ISO." 

This is an interactive class that will provide a basic understanding of how to navigate the industry, helping you get the best rates for your startup. Participants will get a copy of the FeeFighters Credit Card Processing ebook, as well as a custom statement audit.


Sean Harper is the co-founder and CEO of FeeFighters, a comparison shopping website for small business financial services. Their unique auction process and comparison engine allows us to save businesses 40% on average on their credit card processing.

Prior to his entrepreneurial ventures, Sean Harper worked as a venture capitalist at Longworth Venture Partners and William Blair Capital Partners and as a consultant at the Boston Consulting Group where he worked on a number of projects in the payments industry. Sean holds an A.B. in economics from the University of Chicago, where he also studied computer science and an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
