August 28, 2009 - In an annual recognition of top performing sales organizations, First Data recognized Universal Merchant Services with its 2008 President’s Award for Top New Clients.
First Data presents the President’s Award to only the top three U.S. sales organizations, as ranked by performance in that calendar year. This is truly a coveted award, and one that is equally difficult to obtain. Universal Merchant Services received the award in part due to exceptional sales performance in 2008, marking its strongest year of performance since its founding in 1995.
