Join thousands of independent retailers to cut your business expenses, grow your profits, and spend less time on your business.
 
(Retailers are guaranteed to save money!)
With the rising cost of living and the daily grind to compete against major supermarket chains, retailers need to cut costs and work smarter more than ever.

How much is it to join the Fed?
 
The average independent retailer can save more than £1,000 right away, depending on their circumstances. 

For example, a retailer switched to our recommended payment solution, and with lower authorisation and transaction fees, he managed to save over £960 for the year and every year thereafter.

Together with other benefits, this particular retailer can save almost up to £3,000 in his first year.

If you pay £20 per week for the Fed membership, it will cost £1,040 per year. You will still save money!

You'll be glad to know that the membership fee is much less than £20 per week.

Membership for the Fed is only £5.95 ex. VAT per week!

That's less than what you pay for 2 cups of coffee.

Join the Fed today and start saving money and increasing your profits.
