What Is Cash Discount Payment Processing?
Cash Discount is an alternative to traditional payment processing that provides choice while saving businesses money. Here's an overview of how it works.
Lower your credit card processing costs each month by encouraging customers to use cash payments.
A cash discount offers a lower price for cash payments to offset credit card fees, while a surcharge adds a fee to credit card payments so those customers pay more than the advertised price to offset credit card fees.
Both Cash Discount and Surcharging are an alternative to traditional payments acceptance that completely offsets card processing costs.
Let's face it, the cost to accept credit cards adds up quickly. Adopting a no-fee payment processing model can help you save the costs associated with traditional card acceptance programs.
