The Boost Program

Your processor should give back. Now one finally does.

Every other processor takes your fees and disappears. Dough Boost flips it. Based on what you process, you get a free website, monthly social media content, custom AI tools, free terminals, or a Google review card. The bigger you grow, the more we hand back.

Free websites Monthly social posts Custom GPTs Google review cards Free terminals

The first processor that pays you back.

Most payment processors collect your fees, deposit them in their account, and disappear until you have a problem. Dough does it differently.

Every month, when you process payments through Dough, a portion of our margin gets reinvested directly into your business — through real, valuable services. A new website. Social media that actually goes out every week. A custom AI assistant trained on your business. A Google review card sitting on your counter.

The more you process, the more you get. No tricks, no fine print games. Just a processor that's incentivized for you to grow, instead of just to bill.

How traditional processors work
You pay processing fees
They pocket it. The end.
How Dough works
You pay processing fees
We take a fair margin
The rest builds your business
You get website + social + AI
You'd pay processing fees anyway. Now you get something for it.

Three tiers. The bigger you grow, the more we hand back.

Boost is funded by your processing volume — so the perks scale with how much you process. Every tier includes a free Google review card. Every tier.

Talk to Us

Larger merchants may qualify for additional perks — let's chat.

What each perk actually gets you.

Not vague promises or "marketing support." Real, tangible deliverables built specifically for your business.

Custom Website

A real, fast, modern site for your business.

Not a templated page builder. A custom site designed around your business, your photos, your brand — built by people who know what makes a small-business website actually convert.

  • 1 page (Starter), 5 pages (Pro), or 7 pages (Premium)
  • Mobile-optimized, fast-loading, SEO-friendly
  • Custom domain support — keep your existing domain or we'll get one
  • Integrated contact forms and Google Maps
  • Hosting included free at Pro and Premium tiers
  • Light updates handled by us — no need to learn anything
Monthly Social Content

Posts that actually go out every month.

Most small businesses have a Facebook page that hasn't been updated since 2019. Boost fixes that. We deliver done-for-you social content every single month — graphics, copy, scheduled and ready.

  • 1 month of content (Starter), 8 posts/mo (Pro), 12 posts/mo (Premium)
  • Facebook + Instagram by default — graphics + copy
  • Tailored to your business, your voice, your offers
  • Quarterly check-ins to refresh the strategy
  • Optional scheduling included if you want hands-off delivery
Custom GPT

An AI assistant trained on your business.

We build you a custom GPT (using OpenAI's platform) that knows your business inside-out — your services, your pricing, your tone, your customer FAQs. Use it to draft emails, write proposals, answer questions, generate content, brainstorm campaigns. It's yours.

  • Trained on your specific business, services, and brand voice
  • Use it for emails, proposals, customer service, content drafts
  • Includes a 30-minute walkthrough so you know how to use it
  • Updateable as your business evolves
  • Real example: one merchant uses theirs to generate 80% of their content
Google Review Card

Sit it on the counter. Watch the reviews come in.

A physical card with a custom QR code that takes customers directly to your Google review form. Included free at every tier. Shop owners are stunned by how many more reviews they get just by having one of these next to the till.

  • Designed in your brand colors (or ours if you don't have any yet)
  • Direct QR code to your Google Business review form
  • Single tap, no friction for the customer
  • Most merchants see review counts double in the first 90 days
  • Included free with every tier — even Starter

"How can you afford to give all this away for free?"

Everyone asks. Here's the honest answer.

Payment processing has built-in margin. We make money on every transaction — that's how every processor works. The difference is what we do with the margin.

Most processors keep all of it. They optimize for shareholder returns, big sales teams, and quarterly bonuses. We're not that. We're a Canadian crew that decided early on we'd rather build long-term relationships with merchants than maximize quarterly margin.

So instead of pocketing all the spread, we reinvest a chunk of it back into your business through Boost. We still make a fair living. You get a website, social, AI tools. Win-win.

You'd pay the processing fees anyway. The only question is whether you want anything in return.

1

You process payments

Same as you would with any processor. Customers tap, swipe, dip, or pay online.

2

We take a fair margin

Lower than most processors. Sometimes zero (with surcharging). Always transparent.

3

A chunk goes to Boost

Part of our margin funds your website, your social posts, your custom GPT.

4

You grow. We grow.

The bigger your business gets, the more value you get from us. Aligned incentives.

What it actually looks like in practice.

Dough built me a custom GPT that handles my marketing, my content, and my strategy. As a newer business, this kind of support is everything. I'm now bringing in $50K+ a month — and I genuinely don't think I'd be there without the Boost stuff Zachary set up.

The questions everyone asks about Boost.

No catch. We make money processing your payments. Instead of pocketing all the margin, we put a chunk of it back into your business — a website, social media, a custom GPT, a free terminal, a Google review card. The more you process, the more we hand back. It's a long-term play for us — happy merchants stay longer, refer their friends, and grow with us.
Yes. Boost is funded by your processing volume — we use part of our margin to deliver the website, social, AI tools, etc. So you have to be processing with Dough. Most merchants find that Dough's rates already beat their current processor before the Boost stuff is even factored in. See how switching works →
Tiers are based on monthly card processing volume. Under $10K/mo is Starter, $10K-$50K/mo is Pro, $50K+/mo is Premium. As your business grows and your volume goes up, your tier goes up — automatically. We'll have a conversation when you cross a threshold.
We handle volume changes case-by-case. The goal isn't to penalize you for a slow month or a tough season — it's to keep the math fair on both sides. If your volume drops long-term, we'll have a real conversation about adjusting your tier. No automated downgrades, no "you missed your number, you're out."
No separate Boost contract. Boost benefits are tied to your active processing relationship with Dough. Our standard terminal contracts are 4 years, but the Boost program runs alongside that — as long as you're processing, you're getting the perks.
Our team. We use a mix of in-house design, AI tools where they help (especially for content variations), and proven templates we've refined over hundreds of merchants. The work isn't outsourced to a random freelancer overseas. You're working with the same Dough team that handles your processing.
Yes. If you start with the website but later realize you'd rather have monthly social + a GPT, just tell us. We typically lock perks in 6-month windows so we're not constantly rebuilding things, but we work with you on what makes sense.
Free terminals are a separate qualification — based on your processing volume and underwriting. Most Pro and Premium merchants qualify. Starter merchants may qualify on a case-by-case basis. See terminal options →
