Why use surcharge fees?

Credit card processing fees can quickly erode profits, particularly for firms handling large or frequent transactions. By enabling surcharge fees, you ensure that those who choose the convenience of credit card payments cover the associated costs, allowing your business to remain competitive without raising prices across the board
