When the position is too important to get wrong.
Consulting Resource Group (CRG) is a specialist payments consultancy and platform company focused on card network (scheme) economics, cost governance, and operational execution for issuers, acquirers, fintechs, and ISOs.
We help organizations improve profitability and control through payments economics, network (scheme) fee optimization, interchange performance, and scalable compliance infrastructure. Our work sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and data - translating complex network rules and fee structures into measurable economic outcomes.
Our team brings deep, real-world experience, including former executives from Visa, American Express, leading banks, and Big Four consultancies.
Core focus areas
• Payments Economics (CardTraq): CardTraq is CRG’s payments economics practice and platform suite, designed to help organizations understand and actively manage network (scheme) fees, interchange performance, and compliance-driven costs. CardTraq combines structured advisory frameworks with proprietary software to analyze network invoices, identify savings opportunities, flag exceptions, track new or changing fees, and support pricing, allocation, recovery, and ongoing cost governance.
