The interchange fee is a percentage applied, according to Visa/MasterCard regulations, to the dollar value of each transaction. There are multiple categories of interchange, and Visa and MasterCard each have their own criteria for their own categories. A transaction must meet the specified criteria for a category in order for that category’s rate to be applied. Each transaction is evaluated individually, so various interchange rates may apply within one batch of merchant transactions.

The Visa Network Participation Fee / Fixed Acquirer Network Fee applies to all settled (batched out) U.S issued Visa credit card and Visa debit card transactions processed by a U.S. based merchant.

  • Card Present vs. Card Not Present
  • Merchant Category Codes (MCC)
