Tiered pricing is a pricing model that charges different fees for different types of transactions. In tiered pricing, processors can define the tiers allowing them to charge higher fees for riskier transactions.

Qualified transactions are those that meet certain criteria, such as being swiped or dipped in-person with a chip reader, and have a low risk of fraud. These transactions are charged the lowest fees.<\/p><p><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); text-align: var(--text-align);\">Mid-qualified transactions may include key-entered transactions, which are considered to be slightly riskier than swiped or dipped transactions.

One common criticism of tiered pricing is that it can be difficult for merchants to accurately predict their total processing costs. This is because the fees charged for each type of transaction can vary widely depending on the payment processor. This is also one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/trc-parus.ru\/blog\/top-pricing-tricks-used-by-payment-processors\/\">top tricks processors use to get more fees<\/a>.\u00a0<span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); text-align: var(--text-align);\">Tiered pricing makes it very difficult to compare fees among different payment processors because they each define their own tiers differently.<\/span><\/p><p>Another criticism of tiered pricing is that it can be opaque and difficult to understand. Merchants may not be aware of which transactions fall into which tier and payment processors may not provide clear explanations of how their pricing model works. This can make it difficult for merchants to make informed decisions about which payment processor to use.\u00a0<\/p><p>Some payment processors have addressed these concerns by offering alternative pricing models, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/trc-parus.ru\/blog\/interchange-plus-pricing\/\">interchange-plus pricing<\/a>. Interchange-plus pricing is a pricing model that separates the fees charged by the payment processor from the fees charged by the credit card networks, such as Visa or Mastercard. This can provide merchants with more transparency and clarity about their processing costs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e1447f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e1447f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">It is recommended to avoid tiered pricing<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96a0b6a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"96a0b6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Tiered pricing was initially introduced to simplify processing rates for merchants, but it has become increasingly confusing and disadvantageous over time. Despite growing opposition, a significant number of merchants in the USA and Canada still operate on tiered plans, either due to limited alternatives or a lack of awareness about potentially lower costs. However, it&#8217;s important not to fall into that category.<\/p><p>If you find yourself on a tiered pricing plan, it&#8217;s recommended that you contact your provider and inquire about switching to an <a href=\"https:\/\/trc-parus.ru\/pricing\/cost-plus\/\">interchange-plus plan<\/a>. While negotiation might be necessary, it&#8217;s worth exploring this option to ensure you&#8217;re not paying more than necessary. Alternatively, you can consider switching to a different payment processing provider altogether, like <a href=\"https:\/\/trc-parus.ru\/\">TRC-Parus<\/a>.<\/p><p>The three main pricing methods used in payments are <a href=\"https:\/\/trc-parus.ru\/blog\/how-fees-work-in-credit-card-processing\/\">flat fee pricing, interchange plus, and tiered pricing<\/a>. It&#8217;s important to note that among the three major processing rate plans, tiered pricing is the only one that doesn&#8217;t offer any benefits to merchants. Instead, it primarily serves to generate more revenue for the provider without considering the merchant&#8217;s specific circumstances or needs.<\/p><p>Understanding credit card processing rate plans can be complex, and this article only provides an overview of one particular plan.
