Are you in compliance with the Convenience and Surcharge Fees?
It is important for merchants to be aware that Visa will be performing in-person audits to ensure compliance with network rules regarding surcharge fees and minimum transaction amounts for credit card transactions.
According to the regulations set by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, merchants operating within the US region or in a US territory are allowed to set a minimum transaction amount for credit card purchases. However, this minimum transaction amount cannot exceed $10. It is important to note that this rule only applies to credit card transactions and does not include debit card transactions.
