Wingman Weekly: Increased Processing Fees

 

For many business owners, increased processing fees is nothing new. As of 2025, 46% of merchants experienced processing rate increases last year. These rate increases hurt a businesses’ bottom line, but the problem extends to the “solution”. Many merchants start passing on processing fees to their customers (Dual Pricing, Cash Discounting, Surcharging) because it’s a way to combat these rising rates, but their merchant service provider caused the rising rates. Why should a business risk losing customers so their payment provider pockets more of their hard-earned money?

Wingman Payments operates differently. When you schedule a discovery call with us, we take a deep dive into your merchant statements to see the entire breakdown of your processing fees. We discuss different Merchant Pricing options so that you are comfortable with the rates you are being charged. Then we provide you with a full cost comparison analysis, detailing the change in Merchant Pricing and a visual showing exactly how much you are saving by switching to us. The best part? If you have any questions about your statement, you can call us and we will take time to explain anything that you are uncertain of. Additionally, we don’t increase your processing fees while you are our customer.
