Top Ten Finalist for 2007 Fastest Growing Company

For the second consecutive year, Fast Transact, Inc. takes its place among Washington’s fastest growing businesses. Each year, the Business Examiner (BE) of South Puget Sound recognizes outstanding businesses for their success and growth. The annual event ranks the top 10 finalists by a combined growth in revenue and wage expense and is conducted with the assistance of Moss Adams, the 12th largest accounting and consulting firm in the United States.

In 2006, Fast Transact, Inc. a leader in payment gateway integration and nationwide credit card processing services, received the BE’s top honor of Fastest Growing Company. The company at that time was responsible for processing over $500 million in credit card sales volume annually. Fast Transact was also nominated as a finalist in the BE’s 2007 Top Places to Work award. More recently, Inc. 5,000 ranked Fast Transact as #1058 on its list of fastest-growing private companies in the country and as #53 in the top companies for Financial Services.

This year’s finalists will attend a VIP Reception on December 5, 2007 at the Tacoma Art Museum as the Business Examiner rolls out the red carpet to reveal the rankings and present awards.
