James Shephard & Patti Murphy
June 29th, 2026
In this episode of the Merchant Sales Podcast, James sits down with Ron Halversen, President of Clarity Ventures, to discuss what it really takes to win enterprise and B2B payment opportunities. From ERP integrations and payment automation to faster cash flow, operational efficiencies, and lower processing costs, Ron explains how ISOs can solve meaningful business problems instead of competing solely on price.
The conversation explores why enterprise merchants buy on ROI, how integrations can unlock markets that were previously out of reach, and why understanding a merchant's workflow is often the key to closing larger, more profitable accounts.
Plus, Patti Murphy's Today in Payments segment covers Europe's digital euro initiative, Deluxe's acquisition of Solero Commerce, Zelle's international expansion, and new surcharge legislation affecting the payments industry.
