Durbin Amendment helps reduce costs for some Merchants
The Durbin Amendment was written with the merchants in mind. Card issuers charge less, merchants pay less. So as a merchant, the most important thing you can do is know your numbers and determine what you should be saving. This way, you can be sure you are not being taken advantage of by your card processor.
Depending on your average ticket item you should potentially be seeing savings of half of what you're currently spending on interchange.
Our partner, Heartland Payment Systems, has been passing these savings on to our customers since the amendement was put in place in October 2011, has your current processsor done the same? If not, contact us today to reduce your fees 651.777.8365
