The valuation of a portfolio or residual stream depends on many different factors. We have developed a program that allows us to quickly determine the value of a portfolio or residual stream by analyzing the various components that determine the monthly residual. There are a number of metrics that are used to determine the value of a portfolio. Income attrition rate, account attrition rate, length of time the portfolio has been in existence, account concentration, margin earned, and merchant mix are a few of the components that we review. The purchase price is determined by calculating a multiple of the average monthly residual and taking into account the factors described above.

The Processor has a period of time (usually thirty days), to either approve the offer or purchase the portfolio themselves. If the Processor agrees to the sale, we will continue with our due diligence process and begin to prepare the remaining closing documents.
