Merchant

Merchant fees or cost broken into 4 parts.

  • Acquiring fees from your bank and/or processor.There are Acquiring fees from your bank, their processor and their associate banks. This is usually the smallest fee ranging from around .001 to .0025 of the merchant fee cost. Since your total cost is around 2% for standard transactions, you can see this is the smallest controllable fee.

  • MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or other Association fees.There are Association fees from MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or other card Associations. Typically this is around .001 of the purchase. This too is a very small part of the fee.

  • Issuing fees from the banks processor.There are Issuing fees from the bank that issued the card used in the transaction. As an example, if the cardholder has a Chase Freedom card, this would be Chase's fee. This is called “Interchange” and it’s usually a little lower than 2% or the largest part of the fees over time. However, if your bank and processor is connected directly to MasterCard and Visa, this fee can be reduced by reducing risk to the issuing bank.

  • Software and connection fees.There are various software and connection costs. For example, one software company charges up to $30,000.00 for software on the IBM iSeries. Then there is yearly maintenance etc.
