Some Companies Advertise Only Debit Card Processing Rates Because They Tend to Be Lower ... Don't Be Fooled
The underlying cost or interchange rates for debit card transactions are typically lower than credit card transactions, so many advertisements only promote rates for debit card transactions. Business owners typically do not realize this until they are presented with the first processing statement.
Unfortunately, many business owners don't look closely at their credit card processing statements due to lack of time or lack of understanding about what they are looking at. The rates and the statements can be very confusing.
The interchange rates on credit card transactions can be several times higher than the debit
interchange you thought you were getting. This means you are ultimately paying MUCH more than the lead in rate the processing company advertised.
Before signing a contract with any processing company, it is important to make sure you fully understand the financial obligations associated with each type of transaction.
Novera works hard to educate clients fully on how interchange works in order to eliminate confusion surrounding this issue. In fact, we have a FREE webinar right around the corner that will help you understand exactly what you are paying, how to tell if you are overpaying, and what to do to fix it!
