Where do credit card fees come from? It is known by some, but not all, that businesses pay fees in order to accept credit cards as a form of payment. In fact, over 7 million merchants in the U.S. accept credit cards. During 2006 they collectively paid over 30 billion in credit card acceptance fees. Despite the size of the industry, it’s a mystery to most who is pocketing all this money and how prices are determined and reported. I had a CPA tell me the other day, “I’m a smart guy. I understand numbers, pricing and reconciliation, but for whatever reason I just cannot get my head around credit card processing fees and the unbelievably complicated way companies report them.”

He’s not alone. Hopefully this article will clear up some of that confusion as I provide some context about where credit card fees come from, who’s making the money, and how fees and rates are determined. These issuing financial institutions make money every time a card they issued is used to purchase something.
