Rates & Fees
What is a Discount Rate?
A discount rate is the amount that you as a merchant will have deducted from
each purchase.
Discount rates are calculated in two manners:
Net Deposits & Gross Deposits.
The difference being the manner in which your money from your daily sales are
deposited.
Example:
Gross Deposits Method: If
you do $100.00 worth of sales, the full $100.00 dollars will be deposited in
your account.
The Net Method: The $100.00 minus your discount rate, would be
deposited into your account.
I.E.: If you have a 3% discount
rate, $100.00 minus 3%=$97.00 deposited into your account.
