Calgary, Alberta - InstaLeaf Inc. the Alberta-based Canadian tech company innovating the cannabis delivery landscape, is announcing the launch of payment processing for partner cannabis retailers.

In partnership with Merrco Payment Processors, InstaLeaf is pleased to announce that community members will now be able to purchase cannabis online, directly from partner retailers.

The most effective method of increasing access to legal Canadian cannabis is by reducing the barriers to purchase.

Legacy market cannabis is an elephant in the room for the Canadian cannabis industry; independent retailers are able to acknowledge the role that it plays in shaping legalization and culture, while also being concerned for the sustainability of their businesses.

Legacy market sites have been accepting various forms of unsecured cannabis payments for years. InstaLeaf is providing security and access to shopping online with local legal cannabis businesses. It’s high time these same services were provided for consumers looking to purchase on-demand cannabis delivery from local legal independent retailers.

To begin ordering, community members must create a free InstaLeaf account and start browsing the marketplace from the InstaLeaf.ca website or app.

Due to AGLC regulations our Alberta community members will be prompted to verify their age, this can be done in-person, at any partner store, or over a video chat with an InstaLeaf representative.

Merrco Payment Processors have been the leading cannabis payment solution provider since inception in 2016. Merrco brings seamless, secure payment solutions to cannabis businesses by making payments smarter and simpler. Merrco is optimizing the payment value chain with distribution through strategic partnerships and integrations; their platform offers ecommerce, virtual terminal, mobile, recurring and card present payment solutions with robust online reporting capabilities.
