From Greg Cohen, at www.transactionworld.com: "Until recently, only the largest merchants have been able to obtain “Interchange-Plus” Pricing. Otherwise known as “interchange pass through” pricing, Interchange-Plus is the practice of pricing a merchant with a transaction fee and then passing the exact interchange and assessment costs from the Associations to the merchant.

...Over the long haul, by limiting the use of Interchange- Plus pricing you can simplify the sales and service cycle, increase your profits, and create greater long-term value in your portfolio."
