dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Shareholders and/or
the purchasers of the shares for which such broker-dealers may act as agent
or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a
particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).
None of the proceeds from the sale of the shares by the Selling
Shareholders will be received by the Company. The Company has agreed to
bear all expenses (other than underwriting discounts and selling
commissions, and fees and expenses of counsel and other advisers to the
Selling Shareholders) in connection with the registration of the Common
Stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders. The Company has agreed to
indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.

THE COMPANY
PMT Services, Inc. ("PMT" or the "Company") is an independent
service organization which markets and services electronic credit card
authorization and payment systems to merchants located throughout the United
States. The Company's operating and growth strategies focus on expanding the
Company's customer base of small merchants through trade association
affiliations, telemarketing, merchant portfolio purchases and superior
customer service. PMT has experienced rapid growth in its total merchant
portfolio base which has fostered significant growth in the Company's
revenues and earnings. From July 31, 1989 to July 31, 1996, the Company's
merchant portfolio base increased from approximately 6,800 merchants to
approximately 89,500 merchants. During this same period, PMT's revenues
increased from $4.3 million for fiscal year 1989 to $149.8 million for
fiscal year 1996. This increase in revenues resulted primarily from the
purchase of merchant portfolios and, to a lesser extent, new merchant
contracts generated through the Company's marketing and sales efforts and
revenue enhancements with existing merchants.
The Company's executive offices are located at Two Maryland Farms,
Suite 200, Brentwood, Tennessee 37027. The telephone number is
(615) 254-1539.
<PAGE>
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of the
Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders.
PLAN OF OFFERING
The sale of the shares by Selling Shareholders may be effected from time
to time in transactions on the Nasdaq National Market, in negotiated
transactions or through a combination of such methods of sale, at prices
related to market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated
prices. The Selling Shareholders may effect such transactions by selling the
shares to or through broker-dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive
compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the
Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of the shares for which such
broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they sell as principal, or both
(which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of
customary commissions).
A Selling Shareholder and any broker-dealer who acts in connection with
the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within
the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions
received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal may be
deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities
Act.

Stock Plan, as amended, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
