Surcharge On Your Existing Processing Terms and Platform

No rip and replace of your existing processing terms, processor, gateway, or payment platform. InterPayments allows you to compliantly surcharge on your current platform - or the one you’ll have in the future.

Processing Terms

Interchange Plus

Fixed Rate or Tiered Pricing

Platforms

If you’re on Interchange Plus, you and your customers benefit from lower processing fees overall. InterPayments ensures you retain that benefit. This is especially important if you intend to surcharge only a portion of your credit card volume.

If you’re on Fixed Rate or Tiered pricing, we’ve got you covered. As your business grows, you’ll likely move to Interchange Plus processing. We’ll be here to grow with you.
