| What is Interchange? |
|
Interchange is set by Visa and MasterCard, and represents the fee paid by the merchant bank to the card-issuing bank. Interchange fees vary by retail sector (grocers typically have the lowest interchange rates, while Internet transactions are the highest), type of card (e.g., consumer versus commercial versus check card), size of transaction (large commercial versus small consumer purchases), and authorization procedures.
Think of interchange as the wholesale cost; discount then is what it costs retail or, more accurately, is the cost to retailers. The discount fee incorporates interchange plus mark-ups for processors and other service providers, and is paid by the merchant on a per-transaction basis. AmEx and Discover do not charge interchange; instead, merchants pay these companies discount fees.
