What the Rebrand Means for our Partners
September 4, 2021
If you are one of our bank or association partners, we are considering this a “slow roll out.” We have been Approval Payment Solutions (APS) for over twenty years with over 150 partner endorsements. We anticipate this update to take some time.
Here’s what you should expect
- An introduction (or re-introduction) to your Director of Strategic Partnerships
- Updated marketing collateral with our new branding
- Product, sales, and resource training opportunities
Here’s what your merchants should expect
Merchants can expect the following changes:
- If the merchant’s statements are branded with the APS logo, the statements will be updated with our new Evolv logo.
- If the merchant is billed by APS for any fees, the descriptor on their bank statement will be updated to Evolv.
What’s exciting about our rebrand is all the products and services we have to offer your merchants, including:
- Digital Marketing solutions to increase exposure and boost sales
- Cash Discounting tools to drastically reduce the cost of accepting credit cards
- Online payment options and eCommerce development to keep business running virtually
- Contactless and smart terminals to accept all type of payments curbside and on-the-go
The alliance of partners under the Evolv rebrand offers increased support both internally and across the United States, with representation in more than 20 states, empowering us to serve you and your merchants better.

NEWBURGH, Feb. 14, 2024-- With a clientele exceeding 16,000 businesses and an annual transaction volume of $6 billion, Evolv has gained the trust of over 25 independent sales offices across the nation. Following Evolv's investment in Kansas City-based Pro1611, the latter is now in the process of transitioning to Evolv KC. This strategic acquisition enables the combined entities to further enhance the Evolv infrastructure, bringing together two prominent distribution channels and fostering long-term growth prospects. “With acquiring an ownership stake in Pro1611 we are excited to expand our management bench and to staff a W2 sales force. This team will be utilized to expand our Agent and Referral bank program,” said Allan Noe, CEO of Evolv. Noe also announced that Jason Bahnson and Drew Smith will serve as Managing Partners at Evolv KC LLC.
