That is a good rate but not the whole story. That will be about 20% of sales. There are also "mid rates" for reward cards and "corporate card rates" for any card in a business name. If you want to use a wireless terminal that usually runs $20 per month and requires a wireless terminal. The company through Costco had a lease only program when I looked into it a few years ago. The lease rate was fairly low but you were locked into a contract for several years. I opted for another company where I could buy the $800 terminal but take my business anywhere I wanted. Most of the advertised rates are for the hard wired terminals you see in fixed location businesses. Not very practical for shows. Then if you want to do internet sales you need a "virtual terminal" with monthly portal charges and a separate account. Some fun, isn't it? I did talk to a guy one yearat Deserted Gardens that had a Visa Master Card sign up. When I asked him about it he told me he ran credit cards through PayPal. Not sure how that works but I've heard PayPal really charges fees.
