Welcome to The Swypit Show, where we take a hands-on approach with our clients AND their businesses. Starring the Founder and Owner of Swypit, Kevin Hodes, our show highlights the credit card processing industry and how you can win by utilizing a proven company, bringing over 20 years of industry experience, like Swypit!
Kevin brings honesty and integrity to what he considers, the “slimy world of credit card processing.” A former chef aboard luxury yachts, his craft brought him into contact with business professionals, dignitaries, and politicians, enabling him to develop “street smarts of business super highways.”
Swypit offers next generation electronic payment processing solutions, combined with a world-class service, price, and leading edge technology. Each episode, Kevin will share his past experiences and dealings within the industry and showcase why Swypit is YOUR company’s best option.
