Offset Payment Processing Costs with Compliant Surcharging

Global Compliant Surcharging Built-In
Credit cards are an efficient payment option for customers, but transaction fees can eat away your margins. Businesses can offset these costs and protect profitability without sacrificing the overall customer experience.
BlueSnap, powered by Payroc, offers a Surcharge API that enables international, compliant surcharging on eligible transactions in the U.S., Canada and Australia.
The Surcharge API supports compliance, reviewing each qualifying transaction for the ability to surcharge based on card brand requirements.
