Adelite for Platforms
Payments Revenue for Software Companies
Turn the customers you already have into a recurring revenue stream, without becoming a payments company.
Your customers get paid inside your product. Adelite boards, equips and supports the merchant, under our name. You get paid on every dollar they process, for as long as they process.

How It Works
- You introduce.Share your tracked link, or add Adelite to your product. That is the whole job.
- We board.Application, underwriting, equipment, setup and training. The merchant deals with Adelite from the first call.
- They process.In store, online or both, on equipment and software chosen for their business.
- You get paid.Monthly, per $1,000 processed, with a statement that shows every merchant and every dollar.
What Partners Earn
Simple Math, Every Month
| Card type | You earn per $1,000 processed |
|---|---|
| Credit (Visa, Mastercard, Discover) | $2 |
| Debit (Visa, Mastercard, Discover) | $3 |
| American Express | $1 |
Simple compensation you can understand: a flat amount per $1,000 processed, by card type. Paid monthly, for as long as the merchant processes with Adelite. No caps, no tiers to climb, no clawback except fraud.
Illustrative example: a platform with 100 merchants averaging $25,000 a month in card volume earns about $5,500 a month, roughly $66,000 a year, at a typical card mix. Actual earnings depend on each merchant's volume and card mix.
What Your Customers Get
One Program, Two Prices, No Surprises
Every merchant gets the same program. Two prices are posted: customers who pay by card pay the card price, customers who pay by cash or bank pay the cash price, and the merchant keeps the cash price. One flat monthly fee, the equipment and software the business actually needs, and a support team that answers as Adelite. Pricing is the same for every merchant boarded through a partner, so there is nothing to negotiate and nothing to explain twice.

Questions Partners Ask
Do we need a license or registration?
No. You introduce; Adelite holds the processor relationship and handles underwriting, boarding, compliance and support. Adelite is software and a managed channel, not a payment facilitator.
Who supports the merchant?
Adelite, under the Adelite name, from the application onward.
Do we ever handle card data?
No. Applications and payments run on Adelite's hosted pages and equipment, so nothing touches your systems.
What does the merchant pay?
Two posted prices, a card price and a cash price, plus one flat monthly fee and the cost of any equipment or software they choose. Pricing is fixed and the same for every merchant; we walk through it on the call.
How and when are we paid?
Monthly, by ACH, with a statement by merchant, after the merchant's processing month closes.
What if a merchant leaves our platform?
You keep earning for as long as they process with Adelite.
Can we set or discount the pricing?
No. A fixed program is what keeps you out of the regulatory picture and keeps the offer consistent for every customer.
How fast can we start?
Referral partners are usually live within a week of signing.
