With the growth of payment-facilitator programs and integrated payments, merchant-service companies are expanding services to take advantage of the trends. The latest is Payroc LLC, which on Wednesday announced it has enhanced both its payments gateway and payment-facilitator program. Payfac programs, as they’re called, allow a merchant-service provider to aggregate and service small merchants on its own merchant account.
Payroc’s enhancements include a new application interface for use by developers, tokenization of card data, and remote storage for merchant payment data.

Known previously as Retriever of Chicago Inc., Payroc processes more than $4 billion annually for more than 10,000 merchants. It links with Vantiv Inc.’s processing network, and is a registered independent sales organization and payment facilitator of Fifth Third Bank and a registered ISO of Wells Fargo Bank.
