Henry Helgeson

After co-founding Merchant Warehouse with a colleague, we launched Merchant Warehouse in May 1998 as the industry’s first website offering low-cost merchant credit card processing equipment and software. Today, the company processes over $8 billion a year in sales and more than 12 million transactions a month. Merchant Warehouse is now a leading innovator of emerging payment technologies and merchant services.

As CEO of Merchant Warehouse, my primary responsibilities are to drive the future vision of the company and lead day-to-day operational activities.

I'm also actively involved in numerous industry associations having previously served as chair of the ISO Practices committee for the Electronic Transactions Association (ETA) and as a current member of their Mobile Payments Committee. I am also a Board member of the Northeast Acquirers Association (NEAA).
