What this is

Most payment processing complaints come down to one thing: hidden fees. Monthly minimums, PCI compliance fees, batch fees, statement fees — none of these are disclosed prominently. Ask for an itemized breakdown of your full cost before signing anything.

Common Mistake

['Never calculating your actual effective rate (total fees ÷ total volume).', 'Accepting the first rate offered without negotiating.', 'Using flat-rate pricing above $10k/month in volume.']
