The payment processing industry has changed a lot over the past few years. There are still the industry standards, the big guys who have been around for years. But with the rise in advanced payments technology, many smaller players have entered the space seeking to disrupt the bigger players and grab a slice of the payments pie for themselves.

It is crucial for a CRM system to provide ISOs and ISVs with the ability to use as many tools and partners, whether new or established, to grow their business and generate more revenue. If a CRM can’t work together with the various tools and systems that an ISO/ISV needs to thrive, it will be difficult if not impossible to successfully incorporate the CRM into your workflow.

That’s why we are constantly releasing new integrations and enhancements to existing integrations, in order to provide the maximum functionality and customization for IRIS CRM ISOs and ISVs. In fact, we have increased our total number of integrations spanning merchant boarding, reporting, value-added services, and more from 17 at the beginning of 2019 to the current number of 34!

Below, we’ve highlighted the powerful new integrations released for IRIS CRM over the past couple of years and shared why we are so excited for the value they will provide for ISOs and ISVs. To learn more about our full suite of integrations, check out the IRIS CRM integrations page or reach out for a free guided demonstration!
