CCD Commerce is a payment optimization program, a suite of tools that converts how your business pays its largest obligations into a working capital and rewards advantage.

Works for any business typeany industry
Every business has fixed, recurring expenses: rent, suppliers, utilities, taxes, insurance. Most of those vendors don’t accept credit cards.
The Commerce Engine changes that. Pay any vendor, through any channel, using your existing credit card, and turn necessary expenses into cash flow float, rewards earnings, or both.
Three paths. One outcome: your expenses work harder than they did before.
01
Credit Card to ACH
Convert any credit card to an ACH payment at zero fee to your vendor, even where card payments are not traditionally accepted. Use a card you already earn rewards on, or learn more about our cash back reward programs that can help you offset the transaction cost, break even, or come out slightly ahead. (See VendorPay Direct Page)
02
Rewards Optimization
Already have a business credit card with rewards or a sign-up bonus? The Commerce Engine helps you route your largest fixed expenses through it, vendor payments, rent, taxes, insurance, turning obligations you’d pay anyway into points, cash back, or sign-up bonus progress. Our advisors will show you which card structures produce the highest net return for your spend profile.
03
Cash Flow Float
When your vendor payment is due before your revenue arrives, the Commerce Engine creates a 30–45 day payment window, giving you time to collect receivables, process reimbursements, or manage seasonal cash gaps without taking on new debt. The vendor gets paid immediately. You get breathing room.
The math most businesses have never run.
A small transaction fee to convert a vendor payment from ACH to credit card sounds like a cost. It’s not always. When your card earns cash back at a rate equal to or greater than the fee, the net cost is zero, and you still gain the 30–45 day float. When you’re working toward a sign-up bonus on a new business card, a single large vendor payment can generate hundreds or thousands of dollars in earned value that far exceeds the transaction fee. CCD advisors model this for you based on your actual spend, your current card, and your goals, before you commit to anything.
A $6,000 vendor payment routed through the Commerce Engine using a business card with a $750 sign-up bonus:
A necessary payment becomes a profit-generating transaction. That’s the Commerce Engine.
