Surcharge &
Dual Pricing Programs

Most consumers today prefer to pay by credit or debit card. After all, fumbling around with cash and change can be cumbersome. We’ve all experienced that juggling act at the counter, right? Cards are simply more convenient. But you know that processing credit cards isn’t free. In fact, it can be downright costly, depending on who you’re processing with and how much you’re processing each day. Our Surcharge and Dual Pricing Programs can help you keep more of your hard-earned dollars in your pocket.

Surcharge Program

retail payment acceptance
Do you need a solution to help you cover the cost of accepting credit card payments?

With EMS’ Surcharge Program, you can require customers who choose to pay by credit card to cover the fees that would otherwise be your responsibility. This allows them to still enjoy the convenience of paying with a credit card, at little or no cost to you.

Simple Setup, Strong Solution

Setting up your new Surcharge Program is a breeze. We’ll program a terminal to automatically apply a surcharge to all purchases made with a credit card. Then, simply post signage notifying your customers of the charge, and you’re ready to roll! Our Surcharge Program includes:

  • Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express surcharge registration, on your behalf
  • Signage giving customers the required surcharge notice
  • A point of sale terminal or system with surcharge programming
  • 24/7/365 live customer support

Dual Pricing Program

100% of your profits, 100% of the time.

EMS’ Surcharge program comes with every EMS terminal and automatically adds the fee. No extra work is required. By distributing processing fees to your customers, your business receives the price of your product no matter the payment method. Your customers get to pay how they want while you save money.

The program comes with our industry-leading 24/7/365 customer service to give you peace of mind if an issue arises. In addition, we’ll provide the necessary signage so every customer can weigh their options before purchasing.
