We offer a revolutionary fundraising and revenue generation program that doesn’t ask supporters to do anything they aren’t already doing.  

There is no cost for your organization to participate in this program.



How you create revenue


It’s a win/win opportunity:

• Your members simply purchase the services and products they already use every month through you.
• Your organization receives a one-time bonus and/or regular monthly revenue depending on the specific products and services your supporters purchase.

Each participant gains access to:

• A portfolio of services that allow your members to collectively save money and generate proceeds for your organization through their monthly purchases.
• A superior tracking system that monitors the activity of your members and supporters and effectively reports monthly proceeds.

The tools we provide to ensure your success

• A program that allows a participant to contribute to the success of other organizations by sharing the program with them and earning significant additional financial resources based on what those other organizations earn.
• Customizable website
• Virtual Office online to track your program growth
• Marketing materials for member outreach

We are proud to announce that Stephen Wicks, founder of BlackBusinessList.Com, has initiated a strategic partnership with 5Linx Payment Solutions.  This partnership will allow BlackBusinessList.Com business owners to save money on their business’ credit & debit card processing needs. 

We offer a program with the lowest discount rate in the industry!

Some of the features and benefits include:

• Accept MasterCard, VISA, Discover and American Express
• Countertop, mobile and online payment processing for most business types
• Comprehensive fraud protection for every transaction
• Maximum system uptime and best-in-class speed and efficiency

We find that many Black business owners are only using PayPal, Square or other payment processors that charge larger fees.

It is absolutely FREE for us to check to see if we can get you a lower rate.  

First, you will need the following:

• Business information (Tax ID, physical mailing address in the US)
• Owner/principal information (contact and identifying information)
• Account information (bank account, funding information)
• Existing credit card processing information (most recent statement)
• Current terminal model number (If applicable.)
