AMERICAN BANCARD RANKED AS ONE OF THE NATION'S FASTEST GROWING PRIVATE COMPANIES BY THE 2007 INC. 500 LIST!

"Boca Raton, Florida, September 10, 2007 -- American Bancard (www.americanbancard.com), a leading merchant services and alternative business funding provider, today announced its selection to Inc. Magazine's 26th annual list of "America's Fastest Growing Private Companies". American Bancard earned its spot on the Inc. 500 list ranked #394 with a growth rate of 733%.

Earlier this year, the company was nominated for the Business of the Year Award by the South Florida Business Journal, by which it was ranked the #1 fastest growing technology company in Florida.

In a world where the term ‘merchant services’ has become synonymous with poor customer care and opportunistic fees, American Bancard has taken the high road, offering premium service and low rates to its ever-expanding client base. This has enabled the company to become one of the fastest growing payment and transaction processors in the United States.

Much of the company’s success is attributed to its innovative unsecured cash advance program which quickly puts working capital into the hands of merchants who might otherwise find funding challenging and time consuming. Merchants use the cash for business growth. American Bancard believes its success has been greatly due to the success of its clients.

“It is an incredible honor to be recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in America,” stated Sam Zietz, President and CEO American Bancard. “This award is a testament to the hard work, dedication and team effort put forth each day by the entire American Bancard staff. I could not be more proud of everyone who has played a part in the company’s success.”

American Bancard offers highly competitive pricing and rates for a wide variety of payment processing and acceptance services, and employs the latest technology in credit transaction processing equipment to handle all credit card, debit card, EBT, gift card, ATM, and check acceptance business.

The 2007 Inc. 500 list measures revenue growth from 2003 through 2006. In order to qualify, companies were required to be U.S.-based, privately held independent – not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies – as of December 31, 2006, and have at least $600,000 in net sales in the base year.
