Merchant Account Executive (1099 Independent Sales Agent)

AI overview

Earn long-term residual income by building and managing your own Book of Business in a flexible, remote role while collaborating with expert partners in the fintech industry.

Are you a driven, entrepreneurial salesperson looking for uncapped income potential? As a Merchant Account Executive (1099 Independent Contractor) with Celero Commerce, you’ll build and manage your own Book of Business—earning monthly residual income for as long as your accounts remain active. Every deal you close becomes a long-term revenue stream, allowing your earnings to compound year over year.

This role is ideal for self-motivated professionals with sales experience—particularly in payments, fintech, or other independent contractor environments—who want the freedom to build a flexible, high-growth business on their own terms.

 

What You’ll Do

  • Build, manage, and expand a personal Book of Business through prospecting, networking, and closing new merchant accounts
  • Foster long-term client relationships to support strong retention and ongoing revenue
  • Earn lifelong residual income tied to each active merchant account
  • Represent Celero’s best-in-class payment and fintech solutions, including Clover and other leading technology partners
  • Collaborate with a dedicated Relationship Partner Executive for coaching, strategy, and ongoing support
  • Leverage Celero’s full suite of resources—CRM, marketing tools, and 24/7 VIP Support—to maximize efficiency and sales performance

 

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong communication, relationship-building, and consultative selling skills
  • A self-starter mentality, with the discipline to work independently and meet goals
  • Experience in merchant services, payment processing, fintech, logistics, insurance, real estate, or similar sales environments (preferred but not required)

 

What We Offer

Income & Earnings

  • Lifetime residual income on every active merchant account
  • Monthly bonuses and additional sales incentives
  • High-earning, customizable commission structures
  • Unlimited income potential as your portfolio expands

Tools & Support

  • Access to exclusive partnerships with TSYS, Fiserv, and top-tier fintech platforms
  • In-house underwriting and risk management teams
  • CRM, marketing materials, business cards, and Celero email address (optional)
  • Mentorship from seasoned leaders in payments and fintech
  • 24/7 VIP Support and direct access to risk, underwriting, and technical specialists
  • Ability to offer premium POS systems, gateways, and payment terminals

Flexibility & Lifestyle

  • Fully remote role with complete control over your schedule
  • Work full-time or part-time—your success is driven by your effort
  • Entrepreneurial freedom paired with a supportive, team-oriented culture

Benefits (Independent Contractor Status)

  • This is a 1099 role, so traditional benefits like PTO do not apply—however, you have total flexibility to manage your own schedule and workload.
