Merchant Service Fees for processing card transactions
Westpac offers negotiated pricing for processing card transactions, to Retail NZ members called Interchange Plus.
Interchange Plus means that you’ll be charged two rates for each transaction:
- A variable rate for the interchange fee that is set by the card schemes; and
- A separate combined fixed rate for all other scheme, switch and acquirer (Westpac) fees – this is the rate negotiated for Retail NZ members.
| Transaction Type | Fees* |
| Card present | Interchange + 0.28% |
| Card not present | Interchange + 0.35% |
| Ecommerce More than $15k per month via a linked gateway | Interchange + 0.80% |
| Ecommerce Less than $15k per month via a linked gateway | Interchange + 1.10% |
*Requires a Westpac settlement account to receive the negotiated Merchant Service Fee, due to Anti-money laundering (AML) requirements.
More information on interchange fees can be found here.
