Refunding an order? Check whether you get your processing fees back. 1. Total last year’s refunds 2. Ask your provider if fees come back on refunds 3. Multiply by your fee rate If they don’t, that’s money lost. With Bolt, all fees on refunds are credited back.

Refunds are part of holiday retail. Paying fees on them shouldn’t be. With some providers, fees on refunded orders don’t come back. With Bolt, we credit back all fees, on any platform and with any payment provider.

Your customers should always be yours. Bolt is platform- and payment-agnostic so switching tools never means losing the data and loyalty you've spent years building.

2.9% + $0.30 sounds reasonable, right? But your actual number all-in: 7%. 7% seems to be the going-rate for allowing startups to operate. It’s the rate to get access to investors via an accelerator. It’s also become the rate to simply transact. Here’s the math taken from a real-world example: Real company example doing $250,000 / month with $25 average ticket size. Card processing fees - 2.9% = $7,250 - 30¢ × 10K charges = $3,000 - Intl/FX surcharges = $1,500 $11,750 all-in, 4.7% effective rate Disputes: $3,000 200 a month (2% dispute rate) at $15 14% win rate so $4,300 more in revenue claws back Billing/Subscriptions Platform Fee: $1,750 (0.7% of every recurring charge) Other: $250 Total: $16,750/month. That’s OVER $200,000 PER YEAR IN FEES. Interchange is what every processor needs to pay their underlying bank and card networks. This is typically 2%. So… the processor's profit margin: 71% (or 5% on an absolute basis) Bolt's profit margin is only about 1% on an absolute basis. That’s an 80% reduction. 100% off of billing fees (it’s free) 100% of fees returned on refunds 66.6% off of chargeback fees ~60% off of the payment margin. Ready to switch?

I am thrilled to share that we've promoted @HaydenMcternan to @Bolt's VP of Sales. Many Bolters will recognize his name as Hayden was one of our pivotal AEs who took us from $1m to $40m ARR. Hayden left upon my departure and rejoined on my return. Perhaps the best sales leader I've worked with, he is a warrior, hyper-intelligent, and able to find the win-win in every deal. Bolt will be a powerhouse once again under his leadership ⚡️💪 Anyone ready for a lower-cost, higher-converting, and founder-first payments partner, shoot him a note right now! hmcternan@boltapp [dot] com

Branded an "anti-woke hero", Ryan Breslow warns that entitled employees who have abandoned common sense will be the death of every company “Listen, HR wields a lot of power in an organisation, and some people can wield power judiciously, of course. But when you have unqualified people holding a lot of that power...” Read the full interview ⤵️ telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/08…

Merchant Spotlight: Real Results from a Bolt Partner in the beverage space. We love hearing directly from the merchants we work with, and this feedback from a longtime partner really stuck with us: "Once we got Bolt, we've really been pleased with how the platform has performed. We're seeing $10,000+ orders at a clip we've never seen before, higher conversion rates, higher average order value, more items per order, and bigger tickets on a more regular basis."
