Smart Surcharging for Modern Businesses

Offset credit card processing costs with a compliant, transparent surcharge program that protects your margins while giving customers flexible payment options.

Surcharge Overview

A surcharge is a small, additional fee added to a customer’s transaction when they pay with a credit card. Businesses often use surcharging to offset the costs of credit card processing fees while still allowing customers the convenience of paying by card. This practice can improve profitability, but it must be implemented in compliance with state laws, card network rules, and proper customer disclosure requirements.

How the Surcharge Program Works

The Surcharge Program is a simple, transparent solution that helps businesses eliminate credit card processing fees by passing them on to customers who choose to pay with credit cards. Here’s how it works:

1

Display Pricing Options:

At checkout, customers see the base price and the credit card price, which includes the processing fee.

2

Customer Choice:

Customers can choose to pay with a credit card and cover the surcharge fee or opt to pay with debit or cash to avoid the fee.

3

Compliant and Transparent:

The surcharge is clearly disclosed at checkout, ensuring compliance with all regulations and providing customers with a fair and informed choice.

4

Seamless Implementation:

Our program integrates seamlessly with your payment systems, automatically calculating and applying the surcharge for credit card transactions.

How It Works for the Customer:

  1. If the customer pays with cash or debit, they pay the base price of $500.00.
  2. If the customer pays with a credit card, a surcharge capped at 3% by regulatory guidelines is added, bringing the total to $515.00.

Example of the Surcharge Program on a $500 Transaction

Here’s how the surcharge program works for a $500 transaction with a credit card processing fee capped at 3% by regulators:

Invoice Breakdown:

  • Base Price (Cash/Debit): $500.00
  • Surcharge (3% for Credit Card): $15.00
  • Total for Credit Card Payment: $515.00

Benefits for Your Business:

  • No Processing Fees: The $15.00 surcharge covers the credit card processing fee, ensuring you retain the full $500.00 from the transaction.
  • Regulatory Compliance: The surcharge complies with the 3% cap set by regulators.
  • Customer Choice: Customers can avoid the surcharge by paying with cash or debit, providing transparency and flexibility.

This program not only eliminates credit card fees for your business but also gives customers the freedom to choose their preferred payment method while understanding the associated costs.
