A Fact! Most merchants don’t know is The True Cost for accepting credit card payments is the same regardless of your credit card processor.
This is called interchange and why banks issue credit cards. Interchange is the amount of each sale that goes back to the card issuing bank. This is regulated by Visa and MasterCard, not your credit card processors. Visa and MasterCard make modifications to interchange every April and October.
Business, Purchasing, Corporate and Government transactions are unique because they have different rates based on the additional information being sent along to the credit card processor. I’m not referring to the zip code or the 3-digit code on the back.
I will use MasterCard Corporate Cards as an example.
2.65%
MasterCard Corporate Card
2.15%

1.80%

You can easily save 85 basis points on the same exact transaction by making sure your account and terminal/gateway is set up properly. Please NOTE. I am not referring to the markup your processor has added to your rate, this is a different story and a way to put some money back in your pocket.
I am referring to Interchange alone, The amount of your transaction that goes back to the credit card issuing bank.
