The refreshed program equips agents with end‑to‑end enablement: structured onboarding, ongoing training via Paysafe University, ready‑made marketing resources, and a dedicated support representative to assist agents and merchants, so sellers and their SMB clients can get fast answers, faster activations, and better outcomes.

What agents will do:

• Sign and activate merchants – prospect locally and identify businesses needing payment acceptance (online, in-store, or both).
• Present Paysafe’s acquiring and alternative payment solutions and assist merchants in evaluating and selecting merchants to the right setup. Promote adoption of additional payment methods and features
• Provide guidance to small business owners as they navigate complex payment landscape by helping them understand available payment options and set up a payments solution that supports their long‑term growth.
• Help merchants optimize conversion rates and checkout performance using Paysafe tools and solutions.

Agents who sign up for the Paysafe Agent program will receive:

• Training & tools: Structured learning through Paysafe University plus sales toolkits, optional program tools, which may include iPad and starter merch for field activation.
• Marketing support: Campaign assets and demand generation support designed to help agents source and pursue local opportunities.
• Compensation & program incentives: Competitive pay with bonuses, free equipment, recurring residual income with unlimited earning potential, subject to the terms of the program, tiered commission structures that increase as performance grows and bonus potential, promotions, and prepaid card revenue sharing.

“We’re inviting a new wave of independent sellers, people rooted in their communities and ready to build something of their own, to grow their business with Paysafe,” said Tyler Nowell, SVP, SMB Sales at Paysafe. “With real training, marketing muscle, and hands‑on support, agents can learn the merchant services business, help local businesses with their payment needs, and build a portfolio that truly rewards their hustle.”
