Is this just a list broker?

No. List brokers sell static, recycled data that's 30–90 days old and sold to 50 other buyers. Snare.biz captures directly from state registries the moment filings post — you get the data before any broker has it. And your ZIP is exclusive to you.

What states do you cover?

We're building out all 50 states. Launch starts with Texas and Florida — the two highest formation-volume states in the US. We add roughly five new states per month, with all 50 live within six months of launch.

What does ZIP exclusivity actually mean?

When you claim a ZIP code, no other Snare customer receives those filings. You are the only buyer calling those new businesses. The moment you churn, the ZIP opens up to the market. Most customers never churn because of it — it's territorial.

What CRMs do you integrate with?

HubSpot, Salesforce, and GoHighLevel natively. Any CRM with webhook support gets automatic delivery. Pipedrive, Zoho, and Close.io are next based on customer demand.

How fresh is the data?

Under 24 hours from state filing in most cases. Some states update portals in real time; others batch-publish daily. We capture on rolling schedules optimized per state. You will always be first — no other platform operates at this speed.

Is the data compliant to use?

Business formation records are public record. Snare delivers the data; how you reach out is governed by TCPA, CAN-SPAM, and DNC rules, and our Acceptable Use terms require you to honor them. We give you the signal — you run compliant outreach.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. No annual contract on any tier. Cancel anytime — but the moment you do, your exclusive ZIP returns to the market for another buyer to claim.

How do I get started?

Claim your ZIP on this page. We confirm availability, set up your delivery (email, CSV, API, or CRM push), and you start receiving fresh filings within your territory. Beachhead states (TX + FL) are live first.

Does my price ever go up?

No. Once you claim a ZIP, your monthly rate is locked for as long as you hold it — even as new tiers and features ship later. The only way your rate changes is if you upgrade tiers or release the ZIP yourself.

Why should I trust a company this new with my territory?

We show the mechanism instead of asking for blind trust: official licensed state feeds (Florida's daily SFTP, Texas SOSDirect) instead of scraping, a published pipeline from detection to delivery, and a public legal and compliance package covering TCPA, CAN-SPAM, and Acceptable Use. Read the full architecture in the Moat and Pipeline sections below before you claim a ZIP.

Houston ISOs: How to Get New-Business Merchant Accounts First

Last updated · 2026-09-05 · By Shayne Beavan

Houston is one of Texas's highest business-formation-volume metros, and merchant services sits alongside insurance as Snare.biz's other named beachhead vertical — which means more unclaimed ZIP territory today than in a metro where every processor has already staked a claim.

Houston ISOs get new-business merchant accounts first by claiming an exclusive Houston ZIP on Snare.biz, which detects every new Texas LLC/Inc/Corp filing within roughly 24 hours and delivers it only to the ISO who holds that ZIP — before the business has chosen a payment processor.

Why Houston, specifically

Snare launched in Texas and Florida because they're two of the highest formation-volume states in the country, and Houston is Texas's largest single metro by new-entity volume. For an ISO, that means a deeper pool of ZIP codes with meaningful monthly filing counts, and more unclaimed territory today than in a market where competitors have already locked up the obvious ZIPs.

Claiming a Houston ZIP works the same way regardless of vertical: confirm the ZIP is available (exactly one buyer at a time), choose delivery (email, CSV, real-time API, or direct CRM push), and every new filing in that ZIP arrives enriched with a phone append — full email and SIC classification on SNARE and above — within roughly a day of the state posting it.

FAQ

Can one ISO team hold ZIPs across multiple Houston suburbs?

Yes — the SNARE tier includes five exclusive ZIP codes, which can span multiple Houston-area suburbs rather than a single ZIP in the urban core.

What happens if I outgrow five ZIPs in the Houston metro?

The HUNT tier removes the ZIP cap entirely for statewide or multi-state coverage, built for larger ISO teams and resellers operating beyond a handful of territories.
