What is Interchange?

Read about New Interchange & Fee announcements and scroll through the history of changes since 2005.

Opposing views of Interchange can be argued but it remains that small and mid-sized businesses must insist on an Interchange pricing method just as the largest merchants already pay to get the best bottom line processing costs.

Visa & MasterCard now publish their Interchange rates and fees on their respective web sites but you can save time and review their Interchange by industry and receive a quote that includes all transaction processing and fees to accept card payments at the best merchant rates here at MerchantRates.com.
