Testimonials

We appreciate all the organization does for us fighting for small businesses.

- Jason Klonowski , Owner , Martha’s Original Mackinac Island Fudge, Brighton

The processing rates with our previous provider had continued to go up. The prices we were quoted [by MRA] were lower, and after starting with the MRA program, the numbers don’t lie. I’ve seen a 30 percent decrease in [my] credit card processing costs.

- Mike Casey , Owner , Aberdeen Bike & Outdoors, Chelsea

Through the Michigan Retailer magazine and other communications, we’re kept informed about what’s going on in state and federal government and how it might impact us as a small business. It’s nice to have a group that goes to bat for us and keeps an eye on government and regulatory developments.
