Compassion Processing blends transparent payment solutions with purpose, helping businesses regain control while supporting meaningful community causes.
For years, Roger Sullivan watched capable business owners do everything right. They hired carefully, served customers well, and reinvested in growth. Yet each month, something invisible chipped away at their margins. Credit card processing statements arrived dense and confusing, filled with line items that raised more questions than answers. Owners sensed they were losing money, but few knew where or why.
That quiet frustration became the catalyst for Compassion Processing. What began as concern soon evolved into conviction. The merchant services industry did not need another processor promising marginal savings. It needed clarity, accountability, and a sense of purpose. Roger and his wife Amy Sullivan decided to build exactly that.
From Experience To Intentional Design
Compassion Processing did not emerge from a boardroom strategy session. It was shaped by decades of entrepreneurial experience and firsthand exposure to how opaque financial systems affect small and mid sized businesses. Roger and Amy understood that when costs are unclear, owners lose confidence in their operations and in the partners they rely on.
Rather than replicate industry norms, the Sullivans chose to challenge them. They designed Compassion Processing as a mission driven merchant services company that prioritizes education over jargon and relationships over transactions. The goal was simple but ambitious. Give business owners a payment processing option they can actually understand and trust.
Transparency became the foundation. Every solution, conversation, and recommendation was built around helping owners see clearly what they are paying and why.
The Fee Fixer Initiative Takes Shape
That commitment to clarity led to the nationwide launch of the Fee Fixer Initiative. The program offers businesses a compliant cash discount model that helps offset traditional credit card processing fees while maintaining transparency for customers.
Instead of percentage based pricing that fluctuates month to month, Compassion Processing focuses on flat, predictable structures. Business owners are guided through the process, not rushed through a sales pitch. The mechanics are explained without overcomplication, allowing owners to make informed decisions aligned with their customer experience.
“Our focus has always been on protecting the business and the customer,” said Amy Sullivan, co-founder of Compassion Processing. “When people understand how payments work, trust grows on both sides of the counter.”
The Fee Fixer Initiative integrates with commonly used systems such as QuickBooks and is supported by a U.S. based service team. This operational simplicity reflects the company’s broader philosophy. Payment processing should support a business, not distract from it.
A Business Model That Gives Back By Design

What sets Compassion Processing apart is not only how it handles payments but also what it does with its success. A portion of company profits is donated to vetted 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. This ensures that as businesses grow and stabilize, their everyday transactions contribute to causes that strengthen communities.
This give back model is not positioned as charity layered onto commerce. It is woven directly into the company’s identity. For the Sullivans, purpose driven business is not an abstract concept. It is a practical approach that aligns financial systems with human values.
“Every transaction tells a story,” said Roger Sullivan, owner and co-founder. “We want that story to include growth for the business and support for the community.”
By connecting commerce and compassion, the company offers clients an opportunity to align their operations with a broader sense of impact without adding complexity.
Serving A Diverse Range Of Businesses
The Fee Fixer Initiative supports businesses across a wide spectrum of industries, including medical and wellness practices, med spas, law firms, automotive shops, home service providers, retail stores, restaurants, and nonprofit organizations. Clients typically process between $10,000 and $300,000 or more per month.
Rather than pushing universal solutions, Compassion Processing emphasizes fit. Each conversation is designed to help owners determine whether the model aligns with their goals, customer expectations, and operational realities. This consultative approach reinforces trust and ensures long term alignment.
Many early partners cite improved financial transparency and greater confidence in their payment systems. By simplifying billing and eliminating surprises, Compassion Processing allows owners to focus on what matters most. Serving customers and growing sustainably.
A Different Vision For Merchant Services
Today, Compassion Processing represents a shift in how merchant services can operate. The company challenges the assumption that complexity is inevitable and demonstrates that payment processing can be both clear and values driven.
By helping businesses eliminate credit card processing fees through a transparent cash discount model and channeling a portion of profits to nonprofit organizations, Compassion Processing offers an alternative grounded in integrity. It is a model designed for owners who want predictability without sacrificing purpose.
As more businesses seek partners who align with their values, Compassion Processing continues to expand its reach while staying rooted in its mission. The Fee Fixer Initiative is not positioned as a quick fix. It is presented as a thoughtful, compliant option for businesses ready to approach payments differently.
