Interchange Plus Pricing
Never heard of Interchange Plus Pricing? There is probably a reason! It is the Wholesale Pricing for all
Credit Card Processors, Merchant Acquirers and their sales agents.
"Interchange is the wholesale pricing established solely by Visa USA© and MasterCard
Worldwide© for authorization and settlement of a credit card transaction. Interchange
serves as the benchmark for which all credit card processors and or merchant acquirers
must base their merchant pricing. Interchange is non-negotiable."
With a SharePlus merchant account offered through Trilogy Interchange Plus, you pay what we pay plus a low surcharge. All
Interchange fees assessed for your account are passed directly on to you. It really is that simple!
There are many different Interchange rates based on the following factors.
- Type of Business (Restaurant, Retail, Hotel, Car Rental, etc.)
- Card Type (Debit Card, Consumer Credit, Rewards Card, Corporate Card, etc.)
- How the card is accepted by the merchant (Face-to-Face, Non Face-to-Face)
- Industry (Fast food, grocery, municipality, etc.)
Each month your interchange-plus pricing statement will provide you the detail, so you SEE what
you are paying...and SAVING with your interchange plus merchant account.
Don't be fooled by tiered pricing or low teaser rates. Simply put, it is the most profitable pricing
format for the credit card sales agent and their company! Tiered pricing is a simpler concept, but will cost
you much more in the long run!
