What is the Complexity Tax?

The hidden cost of fragmented tech stacks—$1,250+/month in processor lock-in fees, 30–50% email deliverability failures, and data hostage from walled-garden platforms like Toast and SpotHopper.

What are Vampire Fees and Processor Lock?

Vampire fees are hidden, unavoidable charges (like mandatory online processing fees) pushed by Walled Garden POS systems. Processor Lock forces you to use a platform's proprietary payment backend, disabling competitive rate shopping. We build Modular Ecosystems to bypass these entirely.
