About Interchange Plus Pricing

Interchange is the rate charged by Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express to all processors regardless of their size. Interchange is also called wholesale pricing. Getting pure interchange without markup means you have a team to create and support your systems that directly connect to Visa/MasterCard network. Getting access to this network is a feat of its own in terms of process and investment. If you are a small and medium-sized business, you may not prefer to support the cost of such a team. Alternatively, you can use our scale of operations to process payments through us where we have dedicated systems to process with various Card payment processor.

What's the value of the Plus markup?

We are dedicated to small and medium size businesses and geared to give great customer service. We also provide various value added services that may increase your business customers and reduce your rates even further. For such value, we charge a small markup upon the interchange rate. Interchange plus the markup is called the "Interchange-Plus" pricing. This pricing is as transparent as it can get. This is because, the interchange rate is public information viewable on Visa/Mastercard website (Google: Visa Interchange Rates) and same for all merchants regardless of size. Then, you already know how much mark up we added and any monthly fees to know exactly what you are paying for.
