Rationale Behind Interchange Plus

Big companies like Walmart and Best Buy negotiate their credit card processing agreements on an interchange plus basis. Interchange Plus is where, instead of you processor categorizing each transaction into a category such as “Qualified” and “Non Qualified”, they pass along the costs that Mastercard and Visa charge them (which are called Interchange) along with a small markup.

Savvy business owners know that interchange plus is usually a better deal because it leaves less room for manipulation of the fees.
