Strategic Partners · Authorized Agent

The companies behind the menu.

Steele Solutions is an independent broker. That means we are not on payroll at any single processor, lender, ATM network, or cost-segregation firm. The organizations below are the strategic partners whose products and services we place on behalf of Branson-area businesses. We recommend the right fit; the partner pays us; you never pay more for the introduction.

Disclosure

Steele Solutions is an authorized agent and/or referral partner of the organizations listed on this page. We receive commissions from these partners when clients sign agreements through us. We never charge the client for the introduction, and the partner’s pricing is the same whether you sign through us or sign direct.

Card Processing

Five card-processing platforms, one broker.

Different processors fit different businesses. A Branson tourist-season restaurant has different needs than a B2B contractor with $50K average tickets. We carry five processing relationships so the fit decision is real, not forced.

Cost Segregation

Engineering-based studies, two partners.

Cost segregation reclassifies portions of your commercial property into shorter depreciation schedules. Done right, it is engineering-based and IRS-aligned. Done wrong, it is a CPA shortcut that does not survive an audit. We work with two engineering firms.

CSSI — Cost Segregation Services

The national leader. 60,000+ studies. $55+ billion in client tax savings. Jim Steele is a CSSI National Account Executive, which means Steele Solutions clients run their studies under CSSI’s methodology with the same engagement quality CSSI gives large-firm clients.

Boutique cost-segregation firm we tap for specific engagement profiles where the CPA team or property type fits their engineering approach better.

Business Lending

Working capital, multiple lenders.

Lending is rarely about one product fitting one business. We broker through trusted lender partners so the underwriting actually matches your category, your seasonality, and your time-in-business. No application fee. Approval is never guaranteed.

Borealis Consulting

Local 417 Ozarks lender partner. Working-capital placements, term loans, equipment financing, and SBA referrals. Local underwriters who know the Branson seasonal economy.

ATM

Equipment, cassettes, surcharge revenue.

For merchant-owned ATMs that put the surcharge revenue in your pocket, we source equipment and cash-loading services through ATM Superstore.

ATM Superstore

Equipment, install, branding, cassette and cash-logistics support for merchant-owned ATM placements. Kim Steele coordinates placement under our internal ATM program.

Why we publish this list

Partner transparency.

Most merchant brokers hide who they actually sell. We publish the entire bench. The point of an independent broker is that the partner choice is honest. That only works if you can see the partner choices.

Are you paid more by some partners than others?
Commission rates vary by partner and by product. We tell you the math on any specific engagement if you ask. The recommendation is driven by fit, not by which partner pays best.
Will using your broker change my pricing?
No. The partner’s pricing is the same whether you sign through us or sign direct. The partner pays us; you do not.
What if I want to deal with the partner directly?
Every partner above takes direct sign-ups. Our value is the statement audit, the comparison, and the post-signup support — not gatekeeping.

One broker. Ten partners. Your fit.

Send your current processor statement, your current ATM contract, or your current loan terms. Two business days later you have a written comparison against the right partner on this page.
