Is your Elavon deal still earning its place?
We review your Elavon statement, rates, account fees, terminals and contract terms to work out what the arrangement is really costing your business—and whether it still fits the way you trade.
Independent review. No obligation to switch. We never contact Elavon without your permission.
Provider pricing and terms vary by business and can change. Published details are linked to official sources where available; the figures that matter are the ones on your own statement, quote and signed agreement.
What we check on a Elavon arrangement
Elavon is a global card acquirer with a significant UK presence, often introduced through partner banks, software vendors or independent sales organisations. Pricing structures vary considerably depending on the channel.
Because of this, two similar businesses signed up through different routes can pay very different rates on the same underlying scheme.
- Transaction ratesBlended or Interchange Plus depending on the package.
- Terminal rentalMay be separate from the merchant agreement.
- PCI feeAnnual compliance charge.
- Authorisation, minimum and statement feesSmaller recurring line items that can add up.
Contract, terminals, payment channels and settlement considerations
- Merchant contracts typically range from 12–48 months.
- Terminal hire schedules are normally separate documents.
- Early termination provisions vary by partner channel - always check both contracts.
- Where appropriate, alternative providers may contribute to exit costs, subject to approval.
Businesses Elavon may or may not suit
Why businesses ask for a review
- Pricing has not been reviewed since onboarding.
- Statement is hard to interpret across multiple line items.

Frequently asked questions
Will reviewing my Elavon statement contact Elavon?
No. We never contact your current provider without your written permission. The review is private and entirely for your information.
Do I have to leave Elavon after the review?
Not at all. Many reviews end with the business staying on a renegotiated rate, or with confirmation that the existing setup is reasonable. You are under no obligation to switch.
How long does a Elavon statement review take?
We will confirm the expected review time after receiving your information.
What does the review actually check?
Transaction rates, terminal rental, PCI fees, authorisation fees, monthly minimums, settlement timings, contract length, exit fees and any additional charges specific to your account.
