Hi,

Alot of the 10-20% has to do with risk, especially in this industry. Merchants willing to take the risk on their own accounts through a merchant account will simply pay less for processing and have a greater amount of control.
Our average high risk merchant pays a total of about 6% (depending on average ticket price) and our average mainstrema client pays about 3.5-4%.

Questions?
