Choose a Payments Partner You Can Trust
Trust is the cornerstone of any successful partnership. Your members trust your industry expertise, insight, and guidance. That’s why when you endorse the products or services of a 3rd party company, it’s important you have confidence your members will be valued and treated well. After all, your credibility and your reputation are on the line with every referral you make.
Few referrals are as important as payment processing partners. Payments are the fuel that keeps your members’ businesses running. When they turn to you for a recommendation, you definitely want to get it right.
At Wind River, we understand the importance of trust. We have built our multi-generational, family-owned business on the tenets of stability, service, and trust.

A Message from Toni Hogan of Glenrock Company
Partner Success Snapshot
“We started shopping around for other [payment] providers but found that most of them didn’t have the industry experience we needed. They just didn’t understand our environment.
Glenrock is a member of STAFDA, a Wisconsin-based educational association for distributors and manufacturers so we turned to them for direction. They pointed us to Wind River. STAFDA had already vetted Wind River and was recommending them to their members. We reached out and was able to speak with someone right away who understood our environment and what we needed in a merchant services partner.”
