Zero-Cost Processing (ZCP) is a service designed to reduce the cost of credit card acceptance to zero-net-cost by adding a surcharge paid by the consumer. New rules that became effective January 27, 2013 allow merchants to impose a fee for the use of credit cards. This a fully compliant solution to take advantage of the new regulations which allow merchants to pass along credit card processing fees to consumers. Merchants are not permitted to impose a fee for the use of debit cards. Our patent-pending technology ensures regulatory compliance by determining whether a given card is a credit card or a debit card before the transaction is processed.
ZCP automatically applies a fee whenever a credit card is swiped or entered so that the merchant gets back most, if not all, of its processing costs. Our team takes all the necessary steps to set up a merchant’s account with the right parameters ensuring the merchant is in compliance from the very first swipe. With ZCP the merchant keeps 100% of the savings. ZCP is available in the following states...
