Four numbers from last month's processing statement give you a rough idea of what you pay now and what typical interchange-plus pricing would cost instead. It takes about a minute. Your numbers stay in your browser unless you ask for the breakdown.

Your Last Statement

Every fee on the statement added together: discount, interchange, assessments, per-item, monthly and PCI fees.

An estimate from public card-network rates, not a quote.

No statement handy? Most processors put last month's totals on the first page of the PDF, under "summary" or "total fees".

How the estimate works

Your effective rate is your total fees divided by your total card sales. The typical interchange-plus cost adds three things up: average interchange for your kind of business, from Visa's and Mastercard's published U.S. rate tables; card-network fees (about 0.14% plus $0.02 a transaction); and a processor markup of 0.20–0.40% plus $0.08–$0.10 a transaction, the range typical for interchange-plus pricing for small businesses. It does not include monthly account fees or equipment.

Your real cost depends on your card mix (debit costs much less than premium rewards cards), your average sale and how you take payments. That's why we show a range. For the rates behind it, see 2026 processing rates by industry.
