Federated Payments Celebrates 10 Years of Excellence

Online, November 16, 2009 (Newswire.com) - MELVILLE, NY - Federated Payments, a leading provider of electronic payment processing and related merchant services in North America, announced today the kickoff of its "10 Years of Excellence" celebration. A milestone for any company, Federated has not only maintained steady growth over the past 10 years, but 2009 has turned into a banner year for the company.

"I am personally quite proud of this significant milestone," states Jon Levitt, Federated Payment's CEO. "First and foremost, I would like to express sincere thanks to Federated's loyal customer base of over 25,000 merchants, many of whom have been with us from the beginning. Over the years, we have built an extensive network that now includes over 400 representatives throughout the US and, more recently, Canada. With this in mind, I would also like to thank all our Independent Sales Offices who have been instrumental in our continued growth by taking a consultative approach in helping our customers grow their businesses."

John Guirguis, Federated Payments' President, also attributes the company's longstanding success to its employees. "When the company was founded a decade ago, it was with a simple mission - to provide the best possible services and support for small to midsize business merchants. We could not have enjoyed the steady expansion and continued accomplishments throughout the last 10 years without the total dedication of our world class customer service and operational teams. Each day, our teams provide expert support to keep our customers operating efficiently so they can focus on their business."
