The partnership between the two organizations will offer entrepreneurs affiliated with the Dallas Entrepreneur Center and the sister branch Addison Treehouse, access to low-cost solutions for payment acceptance.  The solutions include retail, e-commerce, mobile solutions, point of sale systems, security and encryption products, as well as working capital.

"Blue Star Payment Solutions brings the assets and brand of the Dallas Cowboys to the largely unbranded payments space," said Jerry Mooty, President of Blue Star Payment Solutions. "We are excited to partner with other outside-the-box thinkers like the team at the Dallas Entrepreneur Center that helps people realize the American Dream on a daily basis."

The 1 Million Cups initiative provides the opportunity for entrepreneurs to engage with colleagues, investors, and the community in general.  Entrepreneurs have the ability to present their startup ideas to the public while receiving mentorship from the Dallas Entrepreneur Center.  The program is held every Wednesday morning from 9am to 10am at The DEC.

"The DEC and Addison Treehouse are always trying to find tools and resources to support the entrepreneurial community in North Texas, and credit card processing is essential for many of the entrepreneurs we work with," said Trey Bowles, CEO and Co-Founder of The Dec and Addison Treehouse. "We are thrilled to work with and be affiliated with Blue Star Payment Solutions and leading entrepreneurs like the Jones Family."

Members of The DEC or the Addison Treehouse who utilize Blue Star for their merchant services will receive one-of-a-kind, limited edition Cowboys merchandise, entrance into the Dallas Cowboys United Fan Club at a preferred level, and access to experiences exclusive to Blue Star merchants.  They will also enjoy the very highest quality customer service and customer experience, both synonymous with the Dallas Cowboys.

"The Jones family have always been entrepreneurs," added Jerry Jones Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of the Dallas Cowboys.  "It just made sense for our organization to partner with the Dallas Entrepreneur Center that helps area entrepreneurs start their own businesses."
