• I am a merchant who intends to surcharge. What is the process I need tofollow?
• U.S. merchants that intend to surcharge are required to:
o Notify Visa and your acquirer at least 30 days in advance of beginning to surcharge. A
notification form to Visa can be submitted
atwww.visa.com/merchantsurcharging.
o Limit surcharging to credit cards only (debit cards and prepaid cards cannot be
surcharged) and limit the amount to your merchant discount rate for the applicable
credit card surcharge*.
