 * I received an email a last week from Priority Payment Systems stating that Simplify
   Commerce (from Mastercard) was being closed down on August 1, 2018 but I can’t
   find anything via Google search confirming it.
 * Date: 7/10/2018

 * Dear Valued Client,
 * If you are currently using the Simplify Commerce Gateway to process credit card
   transactions, please be advised that they are discontinuing this product effective
   August 1st, 2018.
 * Moving forward, Priority will be reaching out to assist merchants in setting 
   up MX™ Merchant. Our MX™ Merchant app is a virtual terminal that provides businesses
   with the ability to process credit card transactions through the “QuickPay” feature,
   as well as access reporting and other features within MX™ Merchant…

 * I already had Stripe as a backup processor and simply made that live and turned
   off Simplify.

 * Hi Celenie,
 * As our valued merchant, first and foremost, we would like to apologize for the
   stirred up trouble (given the short notice) regarding the email sent out by Priority
   Payment Systems (PPS). We would like to confirm that the email is accurate.
 * Simplify Commerce will no longer support PPS as our partnered acquirer, after
   the cut-off date (September 1st). If you wish to continue processing after the
   cut-off date, please follow the steps provided on the email. Your account details
   will be migrated to MXMerchant and will be processing transaction through their
   API Keys as well. You will no longer need to contact us, nor need us for support
 * Kindly coordinate with them directly using this using this phone number: 1-866-
   655-9221. Please note that their over-the-phone assistance center is open from
   Mondays through Fridays, 8 AM to 9 PM EST.
 * We thank you for trusting Simplify Commerce with your business. Wishing you a
   great success!
 * Regards,
    Marian Merchant Support Specialist Simplify Commerce

 * I always had Stripe as a backup so I just switched over to Stripe and didn’t 
   look back. Stripe also offers Apple Pay and I’ve noticed an uptick in orders,
   many of them using Apple Pay.
