Merchant Card International is a provider of credit card processing systems for businesses of all sizes. As with all of the DTRA sponsors Merchant Card International does not market directly to the driver. Merchant Card International processes the credit card transactions from businesses that accept Visa & MasterCard as payment for their products & services. Carl Brunholzl, an independent representative of Merchant Card International and long time race fan has seen the value the DTRA can provide to sponsors. “I want to target the business owners in the stands, as we all know most businesses process credit card transactions every day. I want to offer these business owners/race fans reduced rates & fees on their merchant processing accounts” stated Carl at a recent DTRA meeting. Merchant Card International does not issue credit cards. They offer businesses affordable and effective credit card processing systems & support. Further, Carl is committed to providing the DTRA drivers a portion of every transaction fee collected which will go directly into the DTRA National Point fund! “The cost of racing has increased at an alarming rate over the years and with my partnership with the DTRA it is a way for me to help ease the burden” mentioned Carl at the newly signed DTRA member track Fox Ridge Speedway’s banquet. Merchant Card International will now be the official transaction processing provider for the DTRA. The DTRA will encourage all DTRA tracks to investigate using Merchant Card International if they do or do not currently use credit or debit card transactions at their track. Race fans at those race tracks have the ability to contribute directly to the DTRA National Point fund by simply buying tickets, hot dogs or a t-shirt using their debit or credit card.
