Eliminate 100% of your Credit Card Fees

Surcharging eliminates only 30-40% and irritates Customers

Surcharging

With a Surcharging program, a Dealership eliminates all VISA, Mastercard, Discover and interchange fees. But AMEX does not support Surcharging and Debit Cards do not work with Surcharging. Usage varies, but industry-wide this represents 60-70% of costs remaining. Other issue is the receipt shows that cost of the services plus a Service Fee to use a Credit Card. Some Customers view this as a Penalty to use their Credit Card. This can range from irritation to going somewhere else. DRS does offer Surcharging if you like and can beat all Competitors.

 

  • Could be viewed as a “Penalty”
  • AMEX and Debit Cards do not work
  • You keep 60-70% of Fees
