Reduce the cost of credit card acceptance with credit card surcharge fees1

No matter the credit card, you can reliably accept and surcharge credit card payments. Plus, with credit card surcharge, you get a flat-rate PIN debit card acceptance cost of just 1% + $0.25 per transaction.

Credit card surcharge plans that Elavon offers

Merchant managed: The surcharge fees you collect will be funded to your bank account as part of a funding file for a batched submission. At the end of the billing period, the business will see a debit against their account for all surcharge fees you collected and were funded for over the course of the billing cycle.

Acquirer managed: The processor removes the surcharge fees you collected prior to sending the funding file to your bank. No debit of the surcharge fees will appear on your account at the end of the billing period.
