Meet The Owners
Georgiann Leahy
Owner“With deep roots in New York’s Capital District, I am proud to call this area my home. As a longtime resident, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities local businesses face. I am passionate about helping them grow and succeed. This in turn helps our communities offer the goods and services residents rely on and keeps those goods and services local.
Partnering with my husband, we have combined experience of 20 years in payment processing and business solutions. I work closely with business owners to provide personalized guidance, streamlined payment solutions, and trusted support. My goal is to have a partner relationship with businesses that focuses on helping them improve efficiency, reduce costs, and build long-term success.
Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, exploring local history, and taking advantage of everything the Capital Region has to offer throughout all four seasons. Whether it’s hiking, visiting historic sites, or enjoying the beauty of Upstate New York, I value the strong sense of community that makes the area special.”
Co-OwnerJeff Leahy
“I’ve been a New York Capital District resident for many years. I’m a Siena grad that has worked for several large national retailers and Key Bank for the past 20+ years. I have a strong background in credit card processing, merchant services, and payment technology solutions. I’m very passionate about helping businesses simplify and improve their payment systems and have built trusted relationships and delivering reliable, customer-focused service in an ever-changing industry.
Known for industry expertise, responsiveness, and a practical approach to solving challenges, I work with businesses to create payment solutions that are secure, efficient, and built for growth.
When not working with clients, I enjoy the outdoors, golfing, sports, and taking on home improvement projects. Strategy, teamwork, and the satisfaction of building something that lasts is what our business is all about.”
