What Does an Acquiring Agreement Cost?

To process payments, including credit card transactions, an acquiring agreement is required. But what does it cost? Read more below.

There are many different acquirers on the market, each with slightly varying offerings. However, they all provide access to process card payments in your webshop.

The pricing structure for acquiring agreements is fairly complex, as it is regulated by international companies such as Visa, MasterCard, etc. Therefore, it can be quite difficult to fully understand.
 
When selecting a payment solution, the acquiring fees are typically the largest cost component, and it is therefore important to focus on this aspect when making your agreement.
