To begin with Chris Del Grande took care and treated me like I was someone:)... Before working with Chris, however, I mentioned the initial negative on BBB about his own company..... Chris then instrumentally and systematically helped the merchant who remarked like that to receive everything even above and beyond what they expected, and the merchant reversed their initial negative into an honest to goodness and truthful positive about Valued Merchant Services which I thought was pure excellence. Needless to say I am now a Regional Account Manager with Valued Merchant Services, and the company consistently distributes knowledge that is exceptionally useful and very valuable that I can use to serve and help businesses achieve their purposes and streamline their processes. I feel honored to be a part of such an outstanding company. Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

I’ve been in payments 21 years. Chris Del Grande at Valued Merchant Services is one of the few guys I’d send someone to without a second thought. No runaround — you call, he picks up, you get a straight answer. Fair on terms, nothing buried in the fine print. Easy to talk to, easy to do business with. If you’re looking at VMS, talk to Chris.Posted on Google![]()

Working with Valued Merchant Services has been an incredible experience. From day one, I could tell this company is built differently. The leadership genuinely invests in its people, and I'm grateful for the opportunity the owner gave me to join the team as a sales agent & recruiter. What stands out most is that this company truly puts its customers first. They focus on building long-term relationships and providing real value instead of just chasing profits. That mindset carries through everything they do, and it's reflected in the amazing culture they've created. The team is phenomenal, the support is outstanding, and the opportunities for growth are real. If you're looking for a merchant services company you can trust—or a team you want to be a part of—I wholeheartedly recommend Valued Merchant Services. 10/10 experience. Easily a 5-star company well worth it's A+ BBB rating.Posted on Google![]()

Remote Lead Generation Opportunity
Become a Remote Lead Generator With Valued Merchant Services
Start conversations with business owners, identify real opportunities, and arrange qualified appointments for experienced VMS sales professionals. Earn performance-based commissions while building the potential for lifetime monthly residual income.
Remote Opportunity
Full-Time or Part-Time
Your Own Schedule
Call Lists & CRM Tools
Training Included
No VMS Joining Fees
Serving Businesses Since 2006
Know the structure: This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity, not a W-2 job. There is no salary, hourly wage, guaranteed income, or employee benefits package. Compensation depends on qualified results under the applicable agreement.
Know What You'll Do
Your Job Is to Open the Door. Our Sales Team Takes It From There.
Lead generators help VMS find business owners who are interested in learning about payment processing, business technology, and other services. You focus on starting and qualifying conversations, not delivering full sales presentations or closing accounts.
01
Connect
Make professional outbound calls to businesses using available call lists, scripts, CRM resources, and training.
02
Identify Interest
Ask useful questions, listen carefully, and find business owners open to a legitimate comparison, demonstration, or solution discussion.
03
Book & Document
Schedule qualified appointments with the sales team and accurately record the merchant's information, interest, and next steps in the CRM.
04
Let the Team Deliver
Experienced VMS sales professionals handle detailed comparisons, demonstrations, recommendations, closing, and account follow-through.
The distinction matters:
You are not required to become a merchant-services
closing expert, deliver full product demonstrations,
or personally service merchant accounts.
Your role is to create legitimate, qualified
opportunities and connect them to the right people.
Clarity First. Commitment Second.
Understand the Business Model Before You Join
We want you to know exactly what this opportunity is, what it is not, and what VMS provides.
1099, Not W-2
This is independent contractor work, not an employee position.
Flexible Schedule
Choose your own schedule and participate full-time or part-time.
No Required Quotas
No general sales production quotas or minimum weekly hours simply to remain a contractor.
No Joining or Training Fees
VMS does not charge application, onboarding, training, CRM access, or membership fees.
Tools & Education
Access to available business call lists, CRM resources, scripts, recorded training, and ongoing support.
Performance-Based Pay
No base salary, hourly pay, guaranteed earnings, or employee benefits. You earn through qualifying activity.
VMS is not an MLM. There is no required product purchase, inventory, paid membership, or financial buy-in to participate. Contractors are responsible for ordinary personal operating expenses such as their own phone, computer, and internet service. Individual commissions and bonuses have separate qualification requirements.
Three Earning Stages
Earn for Qualified Appointments, Merchant Activations, and Ongoing Business
The income structure is designed to recognize opportunities you create before the merchant becomes a customer, when an eligible account activates, and while qualifying merchant business continues.
Stage 01 · Before the Sale
Qualified Appointment Commission
$25–$50
Earn a one-time commission for eligible qualified merchant appointments. A completed merchant sale is not required for this earning stage.
Monthly qualifying volume:
1–5 qualified appointments: $25 each
6 or more: $50 each
Appointments must meet the applicable qualification and payout criteria.
1–5 qualified appointments: $25 each
6 or more: $50 each
Appointments must meet the applicable qualification and payout criteria.
Stage 02 · Merchant Activation
New Merchant Commission
$50–$350
When an appointment you originated results in an eligible merchant account being approved and activated, you can earn an additional one-time commission.
Separate earning event:
You do not need to personally close the merchant account. Your sales team handles the sale.
The amount depends on the applicable compensation terms and account.
You do not need to personally close the merchant account. Your sales team handles the sale.
The amount depends on the applicable compensation terms and account.
Stage 03 · Recurring Income
Lifetime Monthly Residual Income
10% Share
Under the current lead generator compensation description, receive a 10% residual share of eligible merchant profits attributable to qualifying accounts you originate.
Potentially ongoing:
Eligible active accounts can produce monthly residuals while qualifying merchant business continues.
Amounts fluctuate with actual merchant activity, profitability, retention, and agreement terms.
Eligible active accounts can produce monthly residuals while qualifying merchant business continues.
Amounts fluctuate with actual merchant activity, profitability, retention, and agreement terms.
When does an appointment qualify?
A contact name, unanswered call, or expression
of casual interest is not automatically a
commissionable lead. The prospect must satisfy
the applicable criteria, including the
agreed rate comparison and demonstration
opportunity, along with required documentation
and any other conditions in the compensation plan.
The signed agreement and current schedules control.
Understand the Math
See How the Three Income Stages Connect
Adjust the assumptions to explore how qualified appointments, resulting activations, and recurring residual income work together. This is an educational illustration, not an earnings prediction.
Interactive Lead Generator Income Illustration
Choose hypothetical values below. These are not typical-results estimates, and selecting a value does not mean it is probable or achievable.
Illustrative Qualified Appointment Commissions
$400
8 appointments × $50
Illustrative Merchant Activation Commissions
$300
2 activations × $150
Illustrative Recurring Monthly Residual
$40/mo
2 active accounts × $20
Important illustration limitations: This simple snapshot assumes that all selected appointments qualify, the indicated number of accounts eventually activates, and those accounts produce the selected residual amount once active. Hypothetical activations are rounded to a whole account. It does not establish that events or payments will occur in the same month. It does not model merchant cancellations, processing ramp-up, changing profitability, qualification failures, or other real-world differences. The monthly residual figure is not an upfront commission and should not be treated as guaranteed or recurring indefinitely. Actual earnings may be lower, higher, or zero.
The goal is not to promise an income figure. It is to show why a qualified appointment can have value at more than one point in a merchant relationship.
The Actual Work
What Does a Remote Lead Generator Do Each Day?
You organize your own activity, use the tools and training available, start conversations, document real opportunities, and continue building a productive pipeline.
Your Daily Rhythm
- Set your own calling and follow-up schedule.
- Organize available business call lists and CRM tasks.
- Make outbound calls to prospective business customers.
- Use scripts and conversation training as resources.
- Ask relevant questions and listen for real business needs.
- Book qualifying appointments with VMS sales professionals.
How You Build Momentum
- Keep accurate notes and merchant contact details.
- Track callbacks, scheduled appointments, and follow-ups.
- Learn from calls that result in interest or objections.
- Attend live training and development sessions.
- Improve your communication through practice.
- Build consistency without confusing activity with guaranteed income.
Tools have different purposes:
The Lead Generator Training Hub contains
educational recordings, scripts, tools, and
supporting resources. The CRM is where you
manage contacts, call activity, notes, tasks,
follow-ups, and qualified opportunities.
More Than Processing
Real Business Problems Create Real Conversations
VMS helps business owners with more than just credit card processing. A lead generator's responsibility is to recognize a potential need and connect the business with someone who can explain the right solutions.
Payment Processing
Credit and debit card acceptance, merchant pricing reviews, ecommerce, mobile payments, and recurring transactions.
POS & Equipment
Payment terminals, SkyTab, Square, Clover, and other supported point-of-sale solutions.
Business Financing
Business loans, working capital, and available financing options for qualifying merchants.
Business Operations
ACH, check processing, gift and loyalty programs, payroll, HR, and related tools.
Digital Growth
Websites, ecommerce, applications, social media services, and digital marketing solutions.
Additional Cost-Saving Options
Our Square partnership and Our New Advocacy Program provide additional ways for the team to serve qualifying merchants.
You do not have to memorize the entire product catalog.
Your first responsibility is a professional
conversation and a properly qualified
appointment. VMS training and sales specialists
help with detailed products, eligibility,
demonstrations, and recommendations.
Self-Selection Matters
Is This the Right Opportunity for You?
Remote flexibility and performance-based compensation appeal to different people for different reasons. The responsibilities should fit your communication style, availability, and financial needs.
A Strong Fit for People Who…
- Enjoy talking with business owners.
- Can work independently without daily supervision.
- Are comfortable making outbound calls.
- Are willing to learn scripts, tools, and CRM workflows.
- Understand that results require consistent activity.
- Want flexibility instead of assigned employee shifts.
- Value the possibility of building longer-term residual income.
Probably Not the Best Fit If You…
- Require a W-2 job with hourly or salaried compensation.
- Need guaranteed weekly income or employee benefits.
- Prefer not to initiate telephone conversations.
- Are uncomfortable with rejection or ongoing follow-up.
- Do not want to learn and use digital tracking tools.
- Expect payment merely for dialing or collecting names.
- Want passive income without first creating qualified business activity.
No opportunity is the right fit for everyone. Review the model, ask questions, and make an informed decision before joining.

Questions Worth Answering
Remote Lead Generator Opportunity FAQs
The most important questions about responsibilities, tools, training, compensation, and getting started.
Is this a W-2 remote job?
No. This is a 1099 independent contractor opportunity, not employment with Valued Merchant Services. There is no guaranteed salary, hourly wage, employee benefits package, or guaranteed income.
Do I have to sell credit card processing?
Your main responsibility is to make professional outbound calls, qualify interested business owners, and arrange appointments. Experienced sales agents handle the detailed comparison, demonstrations, presentation, closing, and merchant account management.
Does VMS provide business leads and call lists?
VMS provides access to available prospecting resources, including business call lists, training, scripts, and CRM tools for the lead generation program. Lists do not guarantee interested prospects or commissionable appointments.
Do I have to work full-time or meet a quota?
No. You may participate full-time or part-time and organize your own schedule. There is no general minimum-hours or sales-production quota simply to remain a VMS independent contractor. Specific compensation tiers, incentives, and bonuses can have qualification thresholds.
What makes an appointment eligible for commission?
The prospect and appointment must satisfy the qualification criteria in the applicable compensation schedule, including the agreed comparison and demonstration opportunity and any required documentation. Merely collecting names, making calls, or arranging unqualified conversations does not automatically generate commission.
How much can I earn for a qualified appointment?
The current lead generation compensation description lists $25 per eligible appointment at the 1–5 monthly qualified appointment level, or $50 each at the 6-or-more level. The current agreement determines how levels are calculated, qualified, and paid.
Do I earn anything if my appointment becomes a customer?
Yes, an additional one-time merchant activation commission may be earned when an eligible merchant account originating from your qualified opportunity is approved and activated. The current description lists a $50–$350 range, subject to the applicable compensation schedule and qualifying conditions.
How does the 10% monthly residual income work?
The current lead generator plan describes a 10% share of eligible ongoing merchant profits associated with qualifying accounts from your originated business. Residual amounts depend on merchant processing activity, actual profitability, retention, and your contractual rights. Amounts can fluctuate or stop when qualifying conditions end.
Do I need to keep producing new leads to receive existing residuals?
There is no general ongoing new-production quota simply to continue receiving eligible residuals associated with qualifying active merchant relationships. Applicable rights, continuing qualifications, and termination provisions are governed by the agreement and compensation schedule.
When are commissions and residual income paid?
The standard weekly commission activity period begins Thursday at 12:01 PM Pacific and closes the following Thursday at noon Pacific. Eligible weekly commissions are generally paid Friday. Eligible accrued monthly residuals and qualifying monthly bonuses are generally paid on or about the 28th, subject to applicable program rules.
Does it cost anything to join or train?
VMS does not charge a fee to apply, join, complete company training, access the provided CRM, or remain active. You use your own phone, computer, internet connection, and any necessary ordinary personal operating equipment. There is no required paid starter package or inventory.
Is this an MLM or network marketing program?
No. VMS is a business-services organization with real merchant products and services. Lead generator compensation is based on qualifying merchant opportunities, account activations, applicable merchant profits, and other defined production milestones. No product purchase, inventory, or paid membership is required.
Do I need previous lead generation or merchant services experience?
Previous phone sales, appointment setting, or merchant-services experience can help, but the program includes role-specific training, recorded call examples, tools, CRM resources, and continuing support. Clear communication, willingness to learn, organization, and consistent follow-through are important.
What happens after I finish the required training?
If the opportunity fits, review and submit the independent contractor Lead Generator Agreement. The onboarding team then coordinates the applicable setup, resources, and first assignment. The existing instructions anticipate approximately 2–3 business days after required steps are completed, although timing can vary.
Can I compare this with VMS's other opportunities?
Absolutely. VMS also offers independent sales agent, recruiter, regional sales manager, and affiliate opportunities. Visit the VMS Opportunities Page to compare responsibilities and find the model that fits you best.
