The Revenue Integrity Senior Analyst is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and integrity of merchant revenue by identifying profitability gaps, preventing revenue leakage, validating billing configurations, and overseeing the successful implementation of approved fee changes. The Revenue Integrity role's primary accountability is protecting existing revenue and ensuring accurate billing, with maintaining financial controls across the merchant portfolio.
Merchant Profitability & Revenue Optimization
- Analyze merchant- and portfolio-level profitability, identifying underpriced accounts, margin erosion, and revenue improvement opportunities.
- Partner with FP&A to evaluate MID-level profitability and translate recommendations into specific fee, rate, and system configuration changes.
- Audit merchant pricing structures, including IC+, flat-rate, tiered, gateway, and other applicable fee arrangements.
- Evaluate interchange, network assessments, processor costs, and merchant billing to identify revenue leakage and opportunities for margin improvement.
- Develop recommendations to optimize merchant profitability while maintaining accurate and compliant billing.
Interchange & Processor Cost Expertise
- Serve as the subject‑matter expert on Visa, Mastercard, and other network interchange qualifications, assessments, and processor fees.
- Analyze interchange downgrades, CEDP compliance, and Level II/III qualification requirements to identify avoidable processing costs.
- Validate interchange and network fee pass‑through accuracy, particularly for IC+ merchants.
- Investigate discrepancies between processor‑assessed costs and merchant billing configurations.
- Partner with technical teams and processors to resolve qualification issues and improve transaction cost efficiency.
Revenue Implementation & Project Ownership
- Own the implementation of new merchant billing programs, fee additions, pricing increases, and portfolio repricing initiatives.
- Collaborate with approved FP&A recommendations into detailed MID‑level implementation requirements, identifying the exact fees, rates, and configurations requiring updates.
- Establish implementation timelines, milestones, deadlines, and accountability across internal teams and external processors.
- Coordinate required system changes with FinOps, IT, Finance, and processor partners.
- Track implementation progress, resolve dependencies, and elevate delays that could result in missed revenue opportunities.
- Ensure ASF/application fee configurations and other applicable billing setups are accurate and compliant with approved requirements.
Statement Messaging & Communication
- Coordinate and validate required merchant statement messaging for fee changes and repricing initiatives.
- Ensure messaging is accurately loaded and completed within the required notification and implementation timelines.
- Independently verify completion using Fiserv screenshots of loaded statement messages rather than relying solely on closed tickets.
- Maintain documentation supporting messaging accuracy, effective dates, and affected merchant populations.
- Communicate fee changes, implementation schedules, requirements, and outstanding issues to internal stakeholders.
Billing Integrity & Quality Assurance
- Audit merchant billing configurations and gateway setups to identify missing fees, incorrect rates, and billing inconsistencies.
- Validate completed Fiserv updates against approved changes and confirm corresponding configurations in AccessOne.
- Perform post‑implementation QA to ensure approved fees and rates are correctly reflected in actual merchant billing.
- Review monthly pricing integrity reports to identify missed updates, billing exceptions, and revenue discrepancies.
- Investigate and resolve implementation gaps, ensuring all exceptions are documented through completion.
- Establish standardized validation procedures, audit evidence, and operational controls to prevent recurring billing errors and/or merchant fee refunds.
Reporting & Cross‑Functional Collaboration
- Develop and maintain portfolio profitability analyses, revenue opportunity reporting, implementation trackers, and billing exception reports.
- Collaborate with FP&A, Finance, FinOps, IT, Sales, and processor partners to execute revenue optimization initiatives.
- Document billing configurations, gateway setup requirements, implementation procedures, and QA controls.
- Identify opportunities to automate reporting, improve implementation efficiency, and strengthen revenue assurance processes.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, Economics, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
- 5+ years of experience in merchant acquiring payment processing, interchange analysis, merchant billing, or revenue operations.
