A Different Kind of Processor

Credit Card Processing Built for Lexington Businesses

Lexington is the Horse Capital of the World and home to over 450 horse farms in the surrounding Bluegrass region. The city's economy also includes a strong university presence (University of Kentucky), healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and bourbon tourism. Lexington's Chevy Chase and Distillery District are popular small-business and dining hubs.

Lexington businesses range from equine veterinary practices to UK-adjacent restaurants to bourbon distilleries. CyoGate has processor relationships to serve every one of these industries competitively.

Some of the top spots to visit in Lexington include Keeneland Race Course, the Kentucky Horse Park, the Mary Todd Lincoln House, the Aviation Museum of Kentucky, and Raven Run Nature Sanctuary. One thing they all have in common is they accept credit cards -- contact us today to accept credit cards in Lexington.

Bottom line: CyoGate can lower the credit card processing rates of almost any business in Lexington.
