Frequently Ask Question
Did you know in most cases you get charged twice on your refund transactions?
YES, any payment processor can increase the rate at any time, however by law they are supposed to notice the merchant 90 days prior to the rate increase.
Auto-Renewal Agreements are addressed in the latest Code of Conduct. Merchants can notify their processors at any time if they do not wish to auto-renew their agreement. They are not required to do this during a specific period (such as 30 days before the termination date). In addition, auto-renewal contracts have been limited to six-month terms, so that even if you forget to notify your payment processor, the company cannot review your contract for more than 6 months.
Interchange rates are non-negotiable. However, there are certain ways that you can optimize your interchange fees,which will ultimately lead to a lower interchange fee per transaction.
There are multiple factors that affect your interchange fees, the industry you are operating, the type of transaction you receive, the transaction size and volume you process and also of card brands and card type, there are multiple ways that you can adjust how you take credit cards transactions to qualify for a lower interchange category. This is known as interchange optimization, which will ultimately lead to a lower interchange fee per transaction.
In April 2015, both Visa and MasterCard introduced lower interchange rates. According to the updated Code of Conduct, merchants can immediately cancel their existing agreement if the reduction in interchange costs is not fully passed on to them. Due to Canada's tiered (qualified/nonqualified) price structure, price reductions might not fully reflect the lower interchange costs.
PCI (short for PCI DSS) Compliance, stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. It is a set of security standards designed to ensure that all companies that accept, process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment to protect both the consumer and the merchant.
