Efficiently offer electronic B2B payment options

Employing the right tools to support B2B transactions can optimize cost and efficiency. Whether you are looking to reduce days sales outstanding (DSO), streamline payments acceptance, enhance data security, or increase customer satisfaction, our Merchant Services consultants specializing in B2B can provide guidance and solutions.

Help offset the cost of card processing with surcharging

A surcharge is a percent fee that may be applied only to credit card transactions. 

Surcharging example: A wholesaler charges a 2% surcharge for qualified B2B credit card payments, whereas other forms of payment do not have this fee.

Key information about surcharging:

• May not exceed the lower of either (a) the maximum rate permitted by each payment network or (b) the actual processing cost.
• May not be applied to debit cards or prepaid cards.
• Supported by Visa, Mastercard^®, American Express^® OptBlue, and Discover^®. The lowest surcharge rate must apply to all payment networks.
• Must be the only cardholder fee charged by the merchant (it can’t be charged in addition to a service fee).
• State laws may vary, so it’s important to consult your legal counsel to determine your obligations and if fees are regulated or prohibited before implementing any cardholder fee.

Adaptable and secure Merchant Services solutions for professional services

Your business model is unique and requires adaptable and secure payment acceptance processing. Strategies such as large ticket interchange programs and passing Level 2 and Level 3 data on qualifying transactions can potentially reduce the cost of accepting card payments. Products like online bill presentment and payment can help reduce days sales outstanding (DSO).

Streamlining your payments ecosystem can keep your staff focused on growing your business instead of spending hours posting and reconciling payments and handling exceptions. Let’s talk about tailoring a merchant services solution that can meet your needs.
