Case Study: Merchant-Accounts.ca achieves reliable, cost-effective dedicated hosting with Liquid Web

Merchant-Accounts.ca Right-Sizes Hosting Thanks to Liquid Web’s SMB-Friendly Offering

Merchant-Accounts.ca, founded by David Goodale to help small Canadian businesses accept payments online, had grown into a global payments provider serving merchants across North America, Europe and Australia. When their longtime host shifted focus to enterprise customers and raised prices, the team faced an impossible choice: pay much more for dedicated infrastructure or degrade performance and security on cheaper virtual servers.

Liquid Web stepped in with SMB-focused, managed dedicated hosting, migrating their environment to cPanel, implementing offsite bare-metal backup/recovery, and providing rapid, hands-on support during the transition. The result is a reliable, low-maintenance website that “just hums along” in the background, freeing Merchant-Accounts.ca to focus on product innovation and continued international growth.
