Payzium USA pricing

Two programs. Both published.

Interchange + 0.30% + 5¢ in person at Tier 1, margin lower as you scale. Pick the program that fits your counter. You pay is interchange-plus with Payzium's low fixed margin published on the page. Your customers pay is dual pricing: a widely used model where you post a cash price and a card price. Program eligibility, display, and signage rules vary by state; we confirm the rules that apply to your state and setup before you go live.

Program A. You pay.

Interchange-plus with a published margin.

You pay card-network interchange and assessments at cost. Payzium's margin applies to credit volume only: a low fixed number, published on the page, the same for every merchant in your tier. Debit runs at interchange cost plus $0.05 per transaction, with zero Payzium margin. Card-not-present credit transactions add 10 basis points at every tier.

Program B. Your customers pay.

Dual pricing. Cash price and card price.

With Payzium Dual Pricing, you post a cash price and a card price. Customers who choose to pay by card pay the posted card price, which is designed to cover eligible card-acceptance costs. Dual Pricing can reduce your net eligible card-processing cost on covered transactions when both prices are properly displayed and collected.
