Guardian Financial Software Integration

Ispecx credit card processing with Guardian Financial Services. Home inspectors to easily accept payment on the same platform as their home inspection software.

Guardian Financial Services is a payment processor and merchant service provider. This is the type of account that authorizes you to accept credit or debit cards online. They have been working with home inspectors and the industry for over 14 years. You get direct contact with their owners to walk you through the process and get set up.

We partnered with them for their superior service and because they have access to the best rates from payment gateways like Authorize.net (payment gateways securely authorize payments for websites, much like physical point-of-sale terminals in retail stores).

  • No cancellation fees
  • $10 monthly fee for the merchant account & gateway
