Estimate your monthly processing cost
Use this calculator as a starting point. Actual merchant pricing depends on your card mix, average ticket, transaction type, business category, underwriting, and final agreement.
Estimates are for discussion only and are not a quote or guarantee. Actual pricing depends on business type, card mix, transaction method, processing volume, selected hardware/software, underwriting, applicable taxes, card network rules, and final merchant agreement.
Transaction volume
Total monthly card sales processed by your business.
Used to estimate number of transactions per month.
Business profile
Card mix
Flat-rate providers usually charge the same published rate for debit and credit. Interchange-style pricing can be more sensitive to debit/credit mix.
Your debit mix is high. Flat-rate pricing may charge debit and credit at the same published rate, while custom pricing may better reflect actual card mix.
