Utah Credit Card Processing Fees

Why Start a Merchant Account Audit?

Because managing a merchant account is incredibly complex.

As you know: every time you accept a credit card payment from your customers, you pay a processing fee.

And as you suspect: you are being overcharged.

To understand how to fix it, you need to know where that money goes:

Your customer pays you.

Your processor keeps a portion …

And the issuing
bank keeps a
larger portion. 

The Problem:

You have very little influence over these fees.

You have a direct relationship with your merchant processor. 

But only a small amount of your fees go to the processor.

Most of your fees  go to the bank that issued the credit card to your customer.

… and you have no leverage with that bank.

These are called INTERCHANGE FEEs.

What NOT to do:

In this industry, RFPs are a trap.

Renegotiating with your processor or finding a new one has little effect.

Here's why:

  • Your processor doesn’t control interchange fees
  • Your processor doesn’t have access to all available discounts
  • Changing processors is a huge undertaking
  • Most processors behave the same
  • Often, any initial savings achieved are temporary and soon overcome by hidden or “pass-through” increases

The Solution:

An Independent Merchant Account Audit
