Pricing

Professional Payment Processing typically structures its fees in a manner that reflects the diverse services offered to businesses. The common fees include: 1. Transaction Fees: Usually, this fee ranges from 2.5% to 3.5% per transaction, depending on the type of card used (credit, debit, rewards cards), and the nature of the business. 2. Monthly Fees: There may be a fixed monthly fee of around $10 to $30 to cover account maintenance and customer support. 3. Gateway Fees: If the business uses an online payment gateway, this fee can be around $15 to $30 monthly. Some providers also charge a per-transaction cost for gateway usage, which can be about $0.10 to $0.25. 4. Annual Fees: Some companies impose an annual fee, typically ranging from $100 to $300, which may cover compliance costs or software updates. In summary, businesses utilizing Professional Payment Processing should anticipate a blend of variable and fixed costs. For instance, if a company processes $10,000 in sales monthly with a transaction fee of 3%, it would incur a transaction fee of $300. Adding a monthly fee of $20 and a gateway fee of $25 monthly, the total cost could amount to approximately $645 for the month, including a proportionate share of any annual fees.
