Operating for six years, Veracity now processes more than $2.3 billion annually and has more than 15,000 merchant locations. The company also ended 2012 with a 30 percent year-over-year revenue increase, fueled in part by a $42 million round of funding from private equity firm Great Hill Partners, secured in the first quarter of 2012. In addition, Veracity acquired Lift Network Marketing, a mobile marketing platform and solutions company, in February 2013.

"The tremendous growth Veracity has seen over the past year validates that the market needs a solution like ours, servicing small and medium-sized merchants in the most customized and flexible way possible," said Joseph Cohane, CEO of Veracity. "Our success and growth results from having a strong leadership team at the helm, as well as the honest approach we bring to the marketplace with excellent customer service and fair pricing."

To support this growth, Veracity has expanded, opening up its sixth sales office location in Honolulu. The company is also planning to move its corporate headquarters by the end of 2013 due to expansion. With more than 110 employees nationwide, Veracity saw its employee headcount increase 54 percent from 2011 to 2012. Recent key executive appointments include Matt Thatcher, Executive Vice President of Businesses Development, Randy Siebold, Vice President of Associations and Integrated Partner Channel and Brian Merena, Senior Vice President of Bank Channel Sales, strengthening Veracity's leadership team.

Additionally, Veracity received industry recognition for its strong leadership team and commitment to customer service excellence, including the following:
