Heartland and VersaPay helped McDonough’s Sewer Service, owner of unclogdrains.com, reduce the time it takes to invoice and collect payment for their services for residential and commercial clients in the twin cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minn. and surrounding areas.

McDonough’s Sewer Service has provided a variety of services for more than 20 years including drain cleaning, water jetting, industrial vacuuming, sewer video inspection, de-watering, hydro-excavating/potholing, ceiling and structure cleaning, high-pressure washing, production line cleaning and manufacturing facility cleaning.

Key Highlights/Facts

  • Fewer lost or missing invoices, quicker approval cycles, a reduction in labor/processing costs and increased on-time payments are reasons cited by merchants for moving their accounts payable system to an electronic invoicing and payment solution, according to the “2014 eInvoicing Benchmark Report” by PayStream Advisors.
  • With the Heartland Portico Gateway, merchants can use their Internet-enabled device to quickly and securely process credit, debit and prepaid commercial card transactions by manually keying in cardholder information or adding an end-to-end encryption personal identification number (PIN) pad that will encrypt all card information as it is swiped and key-entered.
  • Heartland Portico Gateway provides an inexpensive way for merchants to accept payments and replaces stand-alone payment terminals that require dedicated phone lines. The Heartland Portico Gateway can also be used to process card-present and card-not-present transactions.
