Dual Pricing

How dual pricing really works: it's a separate program from interchange or flat rate. When a customer chooses to pay the fee on card, the effective card rate is typically 3–4% depending on card mix and volume. On the full program this can eliminate your processing fees entirely. A business processing $50,000/month typically pays $1,500–$2,000 in fees, so the savings can run $18,000–$24,000 a year, replaced by a single flat monthly cost.^* Businesses that see a lot of AMEX or premium rewards cards may still pay some processing unless they're on the full ~4% program. We'll model your exact mix before you decide.

^* Dual pricing replaces percentage-based processing fees with a flat monthly cost. Actual savings depend on your card mix, volume, and program tier.

Pricing programs in detail

Every program, explained

Tap any program to see how it works, who it's best for, and a worked example. We'll match or beat your effective rate on any of them.

Compliance matters. We handle it.

Dual pricing, cash discount and surcharge programs are governed by card-brand rules and state laws. Set them up wrong and you risk card-network fines, chargebacks, or a frozen account. NextPay configures the right pricing, signage, receipt disclosures and legal caps so you stay compliant from day one.

Dual Pricing· most popular, ~0% effective

Every item shows a lower cash price and a slightly higher card price, side by side. Customers who pay by card cover the processing fee, so you net the cash price either way.

Worked example

$100 cash price · $103.50 card price → you keep $100 on every sale.

Best for

Retail, restaurants and service businesses that want to wipe out processing costs with clear, upfront pricing.

Staying compliant

Both the cash and card prices must be clearly shown before checkout, and the card price disclosed on signage and receipts. We set up the compliant two-price display and receipt language so you're covered.

0% effectiveClear signageCard payer covers fee

Cash Discount· one posted price

You post the card price everywhere, then give customers a discount for paying cash at the register. Card payers fund the processing; cash payers save.

Worked example

Posted $103.50 · cash discount −$3.50 → cash customer pays $100; card sales cost you nothing.

Best for

Businesses that prefer a single posted price and simple signage over a two-price display.

Staying compliant

The posted price must be the card price, with the cash discount applied at the register and disclosed on signage and receipts. We configure the posting and disclosures the compliant way.

Single priceSimple signageCash incentive

Surcharge· credit cards only

A compliant fee is added to credit-card transactions only (never debit), automatically capped to card-brand and state limits. Debit and cash pay the base price.

Worked example

$100 base + 3% credit surcharge → credit customer pays $103; debit & cash stay $100.

Best for

Credit-heavy or B2B merchants in states where surcharging is permitted. We keep you within the legal caps.

Staying compliant

Surcharges apply to credit only (never debit or prepaid), are capped (commonly up to 3%), require advance card-brand notice plus clear signage and a receipt line item, and are restricted in a few states. We handle the caps, notices and disclosures so you never cross a line.

Credit onlyCapped & compliantDebit exempt

Interchange-Plus· transparent, cost + markup

The wholesale interchange set by Visa/Mastercard is passed straight through at cost, and NextPay adds one clear, flat markup. The most transparent way to process.

Worked example

On a $100 sale: interchange (e.g. 1.80% + 10¢) at cost + a flat markup (e.g. 0.30%) → you see exactly what each part costs.

Best for

Established or higher-volume merchants who want full transparency and the lowest true cost.

Cost + flat markupFully transparentGreat at volume

Flat Rate· one simple rate

One rate applies to every card sale regardless of card type, plus a small per-transaction fee. The easiest model to forecast: what you see is what you pay.

Worked example

2.6% + 10¢ on a $100 sale = $2.70, the same whether it's a debit or a rewards card.

Best for

Newer or lower-volume businesses that value simplicity and predictable costs.

One ratePredictableEasy to forecast

Membership / Subscription· flat monthly, 0% markup

You pay a flat monthly membership and get interchange passed through at cost with 0% markup: just the wholesale cost plus a small per-transaction fee. Volume makes the membership pay for itself.

Worked example

Flat $X/month + interchange at cost + a few cents per transaction, with no percentage markup on top.

Best for

High-volume merchants whose savings on markup outweigh the monthly fee.
