Our Customer Retention Representative is part of a B2B environment which focuses on retaining and expanding business within our current merchant customer base through strategic outreach and inbound calls.

  • Educate merchants on the value of the North loyalty program

• Maintain current understanding of North processing rate structures and current industry knowledge.

• Work with all departments within North to identify the best solution to the merchant’s concerns.

• Determine the “root cause” of merchant dissatisfaction if cancellation is inevitable.
