Welcome to Freedom Street, a place to empower business owners navigating the world of merchant processing.

My name is Clara Gahon, and I started Freedom Street with a clear mission:

  • Educate merchants about how credit card processing really works
  • Help businesses save money by finding the right payment solutions
  • Expose unnecessary fees and demystify merchant statements

I know from experience how confusing the payments industry can be. Between hidden fees, complicated pricing models, and contracts filled with fine print, it’s easy for business owners to feel overwhelmed or worse, overcharged.

That’s why I created Freedom Street. I believe every business owner deserves to understand their options and make smart, informed decisions about their payment processing, without needing to be a tech expert or financial analyst.

What You’ll Find Here?

This site is designed to be a straightforward, no-fluff guide to merchant services. My mission is simple: Help you understand merchant processing so you can save money and grow your business.

Whether you’re new to accepting credit cards or just tired of feeling stuck in a bad processing agreement, you’ll find tools and content to help you make confident choices.

  • In-depth blog articles on fees, pricing models, chargebacks, and POS systems
  • Step-by-step guides on reading merchant statements and negotiating better deals
  • Product reviews to compare processors and find what fits your business

My Promise to You

I don’t work for the banks or big processors, I work for you. My goal is to help you get transparent, fair, and cost-effective merchant processing that supports your business growth.

If you’re ready to take control of your merchant services, explore the site, or even better, book a free consultation with me. Let’s walk this street together.

Join the Freedom Movement

This site isn’t just about payments, it’s about freedom. The freedom to run your business with confidence. The freedom to stop overpaying. The freedom to grow, scale, and serve your customers without worrying about hidden fees or tricky contracts.
