The Processor-Agnostic POS Opportunity
In this episode of the Merchant Sales Podcast, James Shepherd talks with Satheesh Kanchi, founder and CEO of OneHubPOS, about the growing opportunity for ISOs and agents to offer a processor-agnostic, white-label POS solution. They discuss how OneHub is approaching restaurant and specialty retail verticals, what makes a unified POS platform different from fragmented app-based systems, and why flexibility matters for agents looking to build their own brand in a competitive market.
The episode also features Patti Murphy’s Today in Payments segment, covering retail sales growth, BNPL adoption, payment processing expansion, and Brinks’ acquisition of NCR Atleos’ ATM business. If you’re an ISO or agent looking for new ways to create value and expand beyond traditional processing, this episode highlights a compelling path forward.
