#1 : Fees There are many fees associated with credit card processing. Here is a look at the fees you'll want to address and understand before signing your agreement. Interchange fees A fee charged for every credit card transaction. Your processor pays this 2% to 3.5% fee to the bank of the card type in each transaction. It fluctuates based on several factors, including the type of card accepted (credit, debit or a rewards card), the type of transaction (if it’s done in store, by phone, or online), and the size of each transaction. It's important to note in-store transactions will cost you less in interchange fees, since the card is physically present, meaning there’s less risk of fraud. Monthly statement fees The credit card processing company might charge you monthly statement fees to cover the expense of mailing you a statement. It costs about $10 per month on average but some offer it for free and some charge as high as $25 a month. Monthly minimum fee A monthly minimum amount in card transaction fees might be required by the processing company. For example, the company’s monthly minimum fee may be $25. If your total credit card transaction fees for the month were $20, the company will charge you $5 to make up the difference. Monthly gateway access fee Processors may charge you this monthly fee for providing a payment gateway, which transmits transaction data from your processing system to the credit card companies. Monthly fees cost approximately $10 to $30. Early termination fee Processors may charge you for an early cancellation of your contract. The fee can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to thousands. Make sure you ask what happens if you close your business or decide to use another processor. It's important to ask about all fees. There may be other fees than listed above and you will want to understand any and all recurring fees.

It is a necessity to have a website if you are in the restaurant business. Now, you might think, having a website is enough to bring in more business and show the entire world what you have to offer. Wrong answer! This approach would have worked 20 years ago, but it won’t work in this era. 2020 has hit every business hard, most restaurants have gone ahead and integrated their POS & websites with an app that facilitates online ordering. 63% of consumers agree that it is more convenient to get delivery than dining out with a family. Considering 2020 and the current trends, if you refuse to evolve and adopt new technology, you would lose out on business and customer trust. Even if customers love the food you serve, they would instead order food from a restaurant that allows them to place orders online. As per Forbes, delivery sales could rise an annual average of more than 20% to $365 billion worldwide by 2030, from $35 billion. Taking all into consideration, as a restaurant owner, don’t you want to capitalize on this trend?

As a result, smaller businesses need to save all the money they can get to keep operations afloat and achieve maximum profitability. So, the question remains: what are my other options to avoid processing fees? Well, your answer is either a cash discount or a surcharge program. So, let’s explore together the great debate of cash discount vs surcharge to see which option is right for your particular business.

Whether that means a simple cash register, a cash box or a simple drawer where daily receipts and related paperwork are held throughout the business day.
