About

Bombero Partners

The Dominican trade name of Wallet Partners LLC: a payments company with a single goal: that gasoline stations in the Dominican Republic accept cards on terms that fit their business.

Why we exist

Gasoline stations are among the highest-volume merchants in any economy, yet they are served with the same terminals, the same pricing and the same support as a corner shop. In 2026 that mismatch became national news when the retailers' association threatened to stop accepting cards.

Bombero Partners was formed to build the specialised program the sector has been asking for: a rate 25 basis points below the current contract, no monthly minimum, forecourt equipment, dollar clearing and local support, operated as a payment facilitator under a licensed sponsoring bank.

How we work

  • One sector, in depth. Fuel first; nothing else until it is done well.
  • Bank-grade controls from day one. Our operating model assumes the bank's auditors are in the room.
  • Transparency to the merchant. Statements the owner can check against the weekly MICM notice.
  • Local presence. Installation, training and support in Santo Domingo, in Spanish.
