The shop story
About
Keep The Fees.
Built so tattoo studios keep what they earn instead of losing it to processing fees.
Our story
Born from a simple observation
Keep the Fees was born when we noticed how much tattoo studios were losing to credit card processing fees, thousands of dollars every year. We knew there had to be a better way.
Founded by industry professionals who understand the unique challenges of running a tattoo studio, we set out to create a comprehensive solution that not only eliminates processing fees but also runs every aspect of studio management in one place.
Today, we’re proud to serve over 1000 tattoo studios across the country, helping them save money, reduce administrative burden, and focus on creating amazing art.
Our mission
Every dollar back in the shop
Our mission is to help tattoo studio owners and artists maximize their profits and run their operations with less friction. We believe that every dollar saved on processing fees is a dollar that can be invested back into the business, whether that’s upgrading equipment, hiring talent, or growing the studio.
