How do I calculate my credit card processing rate?

Divide the total fees on your monthly statement by the total card sales for the same month. $412.50 in fees on $12,500.00 in sales is a 3.3% effective rate, or $3.30 on every $100.00 sale. Truvana Tech reads statements line by line, in English or Spanish.

What is a normal credit card processing rate for a restaurant?

Common flat rates are 2.6% + 15¢ for a card tapped or inserted in person and 2.9% + 30¢ online. On a $100.00 sale that is $2.75 and $3.20. If your effective rate is well above that, look for monthly fees, PCI fees and keyed-in sales on the statement.
