Merchant services for Durham Region, done straight.
Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa — Surge gives Durham's main-street businesses a lower, transparent card rate, a built-in POS, and a real local person on the phone.
Built for Durham's main streets
Durham Region is growing fast, and its independent businesses — the Whitby café, the Oshawa barbershop, the Ajax grocer, the Pickering trades outfit — deserve better than a call-centre processor three provinces away. Most are on a blended rate that overcharges their everyday Interac debit and buries the markup.
Surge is different in the way that matters: one clear rate of 2.5% + 15¢ in person, no monthly fee, no term contract, and someone in the GTA who actually sets up your terminal and answers when you call.
2.5% + 15¢ in person, $10 one-time setup, no monthly fee. The whole cost, in one line.
Pickering to Oshawa, we come to you, get the terminal live, and stay reachable after.
Everyday Durham spend leans on debit. We keep Interac cheap instead of blending it in.
A full point-of-sale with inventory and reports comes with your payments — no extra bill.
