Monthly and setup costs are charged separately from per-transaction processing rates.
What does the international card surcharge mean for BMD transactions?
An international (foreign-issued) card fee applies when a customer pays your business in BMD using a Visa, Mastercard, or Amex issued by a bank outside your local merchant country—such as a foreign tourist or overseas buyer. Check the International card box in the calculator or review the Intl. cards column in the fee table to see how cross-border cards affect your net payout.
