Mail Order / Telephone Order Merchants
Brick & Mortar merchants who sell face to face and swipe at least 70% of
their MasterCard and Visa transactions receive a low discount rate and a low
per-transaction fee (this is referred to as a qualified rate).
Due to increased risk, Internet/Mail/Telephone Order merchants who manually key
(i.e., card is not swiped) their MasterCard and Visa transactions receive a slightly higher discount rate,
plus a slightly higher per-transaction fee (See
Pricing). Swiping the card permits
reading the encoded data from the magnetic stripe on the back of the card,
which manual or Internet key entry doesn’t.
