Powertranz

OwnerRez offers many different payment processing options, including the ability to accept credit cards. We are not a credit card processor, but we integrate with many industry-standard processors and gateways. You can choose your preferred processor, and OwnerRez will connect and process your guest's credit cards seamlessly.

Powertranz, formerly First Atlantic Commerce or FAC, enables local credit card payments across multiple locations and supports many currencies, voids, refunds, refundable damage deposits, and security deposit holds.
