  • Consumers: You may pay lower fees on credit card transactions as taxes will not be factored into interchange fees.

Summary

Excludes the amount of state and local taxes and fees from the amount on which an interchange fee is charged for that electronic payment transaction by a credit or debit card network; prohibits a payment card network from altering or manipulating the computation and imposition of interchange fees.
