You mention “emerging markets” which I clearly state merchants should look for on their statement. Want to guess how many non-profit merchant accounts I review that a) are not on a price plan that lets them take advantage of emerging market rates b) are not set up with the proper code to qualify as an emerging market? CPS/RETAIL2(EMERG MKTS) debit intechange is .80% and standard debit is .95%. Non-profits can and SHOULD qualify for this rate, but too many don’t .
Are their special credit card processing rates for non-profits….? The answer to that is NO… NOT in any way…. This lady is full of it….. Visa / MC considers all markets by which they have limited presence in to be “emerging markets”. These markets are specifically; government, schools, utilities, insurance, cable / broadband, and pay television (OD); – nothing more…
Lady remove your video or I will report YOU and your organization to the card associations.

Those are not my degrees, though I have a Bachelor of Science from Syracuse University. One is a certificate from non-proft as a founding member of group that raises money for them. Another is an Addy Award for awesome results in a direct mail campaign. Thanks for commenting though. ^Christine
lol so many degree’s framed in background to bad its a unregulated business and there is no school or college, put those back in your kellogs box.
The first question I have always asked is: What are your surcharge fees? It does not matter much what your rate is if your surcharges (example: fees for key-entered, not swiped credit cards) are high. Sales people might try to sell you on the processing rate alone but be wary of the surcharges. You may and likely will be charged an extra surcharge when “their network” is down because the cards have to be manually entered. You must request a fee adjustment even if it is their fault.
Thanks for viewing this video – what questions do you specifically have about credit card processing fees?
I understond this before now I am totally confused
