Nationwide Capital Funding now servicing South Florida!

March 28, 2022

Nationwide Capital Funding has opened an office in Boynton Beach, FL and is servicing all of South Florida with our products and services:
1. ATM services – Placement or sale. We lease the space and pay the business owner a piece of the surcharge (50% split) OR sell them the ATM and provide service only.
2. Business loans and financing – A 1-5 day turnaround time of funding, including payment schedules to accommodate seasonal highs and lows with revenues, etc.. We can work with business owners on payback structure as well to make it more affordable. You have the option to repay through a small, fixed percentage of your daily credit card transactions or a weekly draw from your bank account and in return you get the money you need to grow.
3. Payment Card Processing – Straight interchange low rates OR 2 price model where business owner passes the fees by offering a cash or non-cash price and essentially pays NOTHING to process cards. (Think Cash and Credit pricing at gas stations) – The customer has the option to pay a cash or non-cash price and effectively eliminates almost all of the interchange fees associated with processing those payment cards. If you are currently using this platform, we also offer a CASH rebate, on top of NOT paying any fees and you end up keeping all of your sales versus just 97.5% of your sales.
4. Point of Sale Systems – Variety to choose from and we can run virtual demos for all our solutions

Taken from Cafe George by Paula website :

Cafe George by Paula Food-losophy

Drawing on the bounty of each season, our daily creations are made utilizing the freshest ingredients we can find. We search high and low to supply our stores from local vendors, because it is our belief that food grown and prepared locally is fresher and retains more flavor and nutrients than food that is shipped in from out of state or even out of the country. We know you’ll notice the difference!

Each day, you will find a selection of “Daily Creations”– a few favorites, some new ideas, and just lots of wonderful flavors. We create our specials menu each day (not weeks ahead of time) because we look at what is available locally and pick the ripest tomatoes, the crunchiest carrots, the freshest steak, and the crispest greens. You just can’t know weeks in advance what will look and taste the best today!

We are always trying new flavor combinations and if you have a suggestion or a recipe you’d like us to try, please share it with me! I’m always around the cafe, usually cooking up something tasty!

Health, happiness & good eating!

Block Island Year in Review…..

September 7, 2016

As another summer comes to a close many Islanders breathe a sigh of relief that the hectic day to day existence known as tourist season is coming to an end. Their Island will soon return to the tranquility that brought them here and keeps them here year round. For the merchants who rely on the short tourist season to sustain themselves, their employees, and their families, it will soon be time to assess the hard work and long hours they have invested.

If the weather cooperated, the economy was strong and the diesel generators that power the island don’t catch fire (great job by BI Power Authority in getting power back within a day) it will hopefully have been a prosperous endeavor. However, with such a short business window, it leaves a very small margin of error and as such requires the business operations be run with an almost military-like efficiency.

One small but very important component of business operations on the island is how the merchants are paid for their goods and services. Cash is always welcome but with the ever increasing costs and the reluctance of tourists to carry large sums of cash the credit card has become the preferred method of payment. The convenience of the credit card for the consumer does come with additional costs for the merchant and over the course of the tourist season that translates into hundreds of thousands of dollars that leave the island in the form of fees charged by the credit card companies.

Traditionally a merchant would look to their bank to secure a credit card processing account. On Block Island that most often meant Washington Trust as it is the only bank on the Island. This provided many merchants peace of mind as when an issue arose they could go into the bank and get it resolved. It came as a surprise to many merchants when Washington Trust sold their credit card processing portfolio to Vantiv Inc. in March of 2014. Other than the Washington Trust name on the monthly statement, the bank has nothing to do with the merchants processing account. Vantiv is a monster in the credit card processing industry that handled over $720 billion in volume in 2015. Many would assume a company this size would offer some advantages. In reality the processor is simply providing a gateway between the card holders or customers issuing bank of their VISA, MasterCard, Discover or Amex and the merchant’s bank. In most instances the merchant will have access to those funds in no more than thirty-six hours from the time they “batch” (settles the days transactions) out their terminal. No matter the size of the processor they all operate essentially the same and maintain very similar standards. This is where RS Capital Group comes into the equation.

RS Capital Group was established in 2009 by its CEO and President David Scalia. David’s history on Block Island began in high school with a summer job at the Highview in 1987. After several weekend visits to the Island last summer for some R & R David started making inquiries with a few of the business owner’s regarding possible opportunities. In the fall of 2015 a merchant with several businesses on the Island asked RS Capital to review their current processing accounts. Upon completion of a statement analysis of all of the entities, RS Capital projected annual savings in excess of $10,000 could be achieved by moving their accounts to its processing platform. At the time of this article being written that merchant is on pace to meet if not exceed that projection.

From there word began spreading around about the two guys who are driving around the Island in a blue jeep. It got to the point in late spring that merchants were waving us down on the street to ask if we could come in and “switch them over” to our processing platform. We have yet to find one merchant who we have not been able to save them money and provide them with a level of customer support they never experienced with their previous mega processors.

What exactly constitutes superior service? How about doubling the transaction capacity by installing new high speed terminals and internet access points. Providing solutions/options on how to implement the new “EMV” (chip card) technology. On-site training and installation of all equipment to include Point of Sale cutover support. Full warranties on the terminals and we provide all of the required thermal paper associated with them. RS Capital also provides unprecedented access to its merchants by making regular on-site support visits to answer any questions and to offer assistance in addressing the communications issues unique to Block Island. RS Capital is a member of the Block Island Chamber of Commerce and it is our privilege to work with all of the amazing merchants on the Island.

Below is our most current customer list for on island merchants. I strongly encourage you to ask what their experience has been like since making the switch.

The Oar, The 1661 Inn, The Narragansett Inn, Club Soda, Bethany’s Airport Diner, The Surf Hotel and Restaurant, Poor People’s Pub, Kimberly’s, Red Bird Liquor Store, Beach Rose Bicycles, Rose Farm Inn, McAloon’s Saloon, New England Airlines, Star Department Store, The Beachhead, Wave, The Tipsy Mermaid, Mad Hatter, Captain Nick’s, Mohegan Café, Old Harbor View Takeout, Block Island Accommodations, Blocks of Fudge, Beachcomber, Kimberly’s, Diamondblue Surf Shop, Old Post Office Bagel Shop, Bonnie and Clyde, Papa’s Pizza, The Sullivan House, Champlin Water Sports, Aldo’s Mopeds and Bicycles, Essentials, Koru Eco Spa, Block Island Historical Society, East of the Nile Trading Company, My Oyster and the Island Experience.

If you own a business that requires you to accept credit cards and are located on Block Island or anywhere in the country for that matter we welcome an opportunity to work with you. Allowing RS Capital Group to help you navigate your way through the electronic payment industry and put more of your money back into your business will be a decision you’ll wish you made sooner!

May 17, 2016

One of our merchants reached out today to let us know that someone from Merchant Services called and this is what the sales rep explained to our merchant “We are the rate provider for your processor and we want to ensure that you receive the refund due for services” The phone number the person left is 1-855-881-9367 and when RS Capital Group called to ask who we reached, we were told it was the “corrective billing department”. This is a scam and please bring it to our attention at RS Capital Group immediately!!
RS Capital Group welcomes Harbor Grill to the payment processing family!

May 16, 2016

Right across the street from the ferry you will find Harbor Grill (inside the Harborside Inn). One of the reviews from last summer was right on point so we will share it here:

“Fantastic!! Great view, great food, and great service! Best meal we had on our short visit to Block Island. Came for dinner. Had the caprese, wings, and spinach & artichoke dip for appetizers (though the dip was served with wonton chips which was odd to us). We had seafood Louie’s, ahi tuna special, NY strip special, and burger for dinner. All were incredible! Highly recommended!!”
Do you really have to use dial up with your credit card processing terminal?

May 16, 2016

Those merchants who have relied on dial up speed and slow response times for years now have a new way to connect their terminal to high speed internet access WITHOUT running internet cabling throughout your business. RS Capital Group has successfully installed and tested secure internet access using only a cable modem and/or router to extend internet access via the current electrical wiring in the facility. We plug in 2 secure adapters – one is connected to the cable modem or router and the other is plugged in to an electrical outlet near the credit card processing terminal. The adapter has a network port for an RJ45 cable and we then have internet access to the credit card processing terminal. This device will certainly reduce the check-out time at the register by more than 10 seconds and add more transactions to the bottom line!

RS Capital Group welcomes Wave (Block Island retail shop) to the payment processing family!!

April 25, 2016

I absolutely loved this review so I had to share it: (This is really a great place for souvenirs here on BI. It’s in Old Harbor so there are a lot to chose from but I’ve been in and outta everywhere these last two days and WAVE seems to have the next quality and best price around. The designs on t-shirts, sweatshirts and baseball caps are tasteful and not outlandish. You can also pick up a great pair of sunglasses rather than a poopy pair that don’t really offer much protection. In addition, the staff is very pleasant and helpful. I absolutely recommend stopping in.) – I simply could not have said it better myself!
RS Capital Group welcomes New England Airlines to the payment processing family!!

April 25, 2016

RS Capital Group is so very proud to announce our relationship with New England Airlines. In my opinion, this is simply the best form of travel to Block Island and back. Bill, along with his staff and pilots are amazing at every level and I’m always treated with a smile each time I arrive. Free parking at the airport, very affordable flights, and a regular schedule of flights makes this a very attractive option for Block Island travel!
New RS Capital Group payment processing client – Old Harbor View Takeout!

One of my absolute favorite places to grab a “special burger” or a lobster roll, I’ve literally been eating here for years. The owners, Mark and Rose have done a tremendous job in updating the outside and it’s a MUST STOP by before leaving on the ferry! As if I needed any more reason to give these nice folks my business 🙂

New RS Capital Group payment processing client – Beach Rose Bicycles!

April 18, 2016

A little bit of a walk from the ferry (about 15 minutes), but this is by far the best place to rent bicycles. The bicycles are well maintained and all capable of handling the sandy trails and hills of block island. Staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable. (I admit to copying this right from the Yelp reviews but it appears to be the sentiment across the board for these wonderful folks). They come highly recommended from RS Capital Group!

Featured Business of the Week!! – Club Soda

April 5, 2016

Club Soda
35 Connecticut Avenue
Block Island, RI 02807

While Block Island itself is somewhat of a hidden gem in the landscape of New England vacation spots, Club Soda is the uncut, unpolished diamond in the rough.

Nestled beneath a flop house/hotel of sorts, Club Soda is where the locals go for pool, good music, great beers, and even better chicken wings. In season this is a MUST visit for visitors to see the real feel of Block Island and for all the creative additions and changes for 2016!! Be sure to visit on Mondays when they do Trivia night which starts at 9pm. On an island that is known for its low key, chill-factor (especially when compared to Nantucket or Martha’s Vineyard), Club Soda takes it to a whole new level.

RS Capital Group is a regular customer for both business lunches and on many occasions dinner with family and friends.
