About Swipe Saving

Swipe Saving is a growing U.S.-based merchant services company helping businesses reduce credit card processing costs, upgrade their payment technology, and improve the way they accept payments.

We work with businesses across industries including restaurants, retail, healthcare, contractors, professional services, e-commerce, and more.

We are looking for motivated college students and recent graduates who want more than a traditional internship. This is an opportunity to gain real-world sales experience, work directly with business owners, learn the payments and fintech industry, and build a career based on performance.

What You'll Do

As a Sales & Business Development Intern, you will learn how to find, communicate with, qualify, and develop potential business clients.

Responsibilities may include:

Prospecting and identifying potential business clients

Making outbound calls and conducting email outreach

Speaking directly with business owners and decision-makers

Asking qualifying questions about their current payment processing and POS systems

Setting qualified appointments for senior sales representatives

Learning how to identify opportunities to reduce processing costs

Learning Swipe Saving's Dual Pricing and traditional processing programs

Maintaining accurate lead and follow-up information in our CRM

Participating in sales training, role-playing, and objection-handling sessions

Working alongside experienced sales professionals on live opportunities

Learning how deals move from prospecting through closing, underwriting, onboarding, and activation

Compensation

This internship is commission-based.

Your earning potential is directly tied to your performance. Successful interns will have opportunities to earn commissions from the business they generate while developing valuable real-world sales experience.

There is no guaranteed hourly wage or salary during the initial commission-based internship period.

Top-performing interns may be considered for expanded sales positions and long-term opportunities with Swipe Saving.

Our goal is not simply to have interns complete a semester with us. We are looking for people who could potentially become part of our growing sales organization.

Who We're Looking For

You do NOT need previous credit card processing or fintech experience.

We are looking for people who are:

Competitive and self-motivated

Comfortable talking to new people

Interested in sales, entrepreneurship, business, or fintech

Coachable and willing to learn

Confident communicating by phone, email, and video

Organized and consistent with follow-up

Motivated by performance-based compensation

Interested in developing skills that can lead to a professional sales career

Business, marketing, communications, finance, entrepreneurship, and related majors are encouraged to apply, but all majors are welcome.

B2B sales

Prospecting and lead generation

Cold calling

Consultative selling

CRM management

Business development

Merchant payment processing

POS technology

Negotiation

Objection handling

Relationship management

You'll also learn how payment processing actually works behind the scenes and how companies generate recurring revenue in the merchant services industry.

Growth Opportunity

Strong performers may have the opportunity to move into positions such as:

Account Executive

Business Development Representative

Merchant Services Consultant

Outside Sales Representative

Referral/Partnership Development

Sales Team Leadership

We are actively growing our organization and are interested in developing talented people who want to grow with us.

Why Swipe Saving?

This isn't an internship where you'll spend your time doing busy work.

You'll communicate with real businesses, work on real sales opportunities, receive real sales training, and have the ability to earn based on the results you produce.

If you're competitive, entrepreneurial, and interested in building a career in sales, fintech, or business development, we want to hear from you.
