Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 3% merchant fee?

A 3% merchant fee generally means a business pays about three cents for every dollar processed through a card or digital payment transaction. The fee may include interchange, card network assessments, processor markup, gateway fees, and other charges. A consultant reviews whether that 3% reflects necessary costs or whether pricing, volume, card mix, or contract terms can be improved.
