What does this mean for you?

Interchange Rate structure changes impact only Interchange Plus pricing merchants. Your cost of accepting payments via these card types may also change.

What do you need to do?

You don’t need to make any changes. The interchange fee will automatically be applied to respective Visa and MasterCard transactions after the implementation dates advised above. Your June 2025 statements will reflect this change.

How this affects your cost of acceptance?

Depending on the card mix your business accepts, you could see an impact to your cost of acceptance.

The new interchange rates will be applied to your merchant statements and will show your cost of acceptance based on the new rates.

Where can you find out more about interchange fees?

Interchange Fees information is published by Visa and MasterCard online and information is due to be updated from the day the changes come into effect.

These rates can be found at:

VISA Interchange, opens in new window
