A Different Kind of Processor

Credit Card Processing Built for Minnesota Businesses

Minnesota punches well above its weight economically — the state is home to 17 Fortune 500 company headquarters including Target, UnitedHealth Group, Best Buy, 3M, and General Mills. The Twin Cities metro is a major financial services, healthcare, and technology hub, while Rochester is home to the Mayo Clinic — the world's most renowned medical institution. Minnesota is also a leading medical device manufacturing state, and has a strong agriculture and food processing sector.

Most merchant services providers in Minnesota are locked into one or two processors. CyoGate works differently — with relationships spanning dozens of processors worldwide, we negotiate on your behalf to find the best rates for your Minnesota business, from a Minneapolis tech company to a Duluth tourism operator.

Minnesota's medical device and healthcare sectors have unique B2B payment needs — high-ticket equipment sales, recurring service contracts, and specialized healthcare billing. CyoGate provides the right solutions for Minnesota's healthcare-heavy business community.

Some of the top spots to visit in Minnesota include the Mall of America in Bloomington, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, the Minnesota State Fair, and Voyageurs National Park. One thing they all have in common is they accept credit cards -- contact us today to accept credit cards in Minnesota.

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