Text PJ NowCommon questions
How much should I be paying in fees?
For most small businesses: 2.6-2.9% + $0.10-0.30 per transaction is standard for card-present. Online is usually 2.9% + $0.30. Much higher than that, you're likely overpaying.
Is Stripe always the best option?
Not always. Stripe is great for online/tech businesses. But if you run high volume in-person transactions, Square or a merchant account might save you money.
Can I negotiate fees?
Depends. Stripe's rates are mostly fixed. But if you process $50K+/month, you can often negotiate with dedicated account managers or traditional merchant services.
Clarity before cost
If you're stuck between options, send PJ the details. A quick outside read can save you money, time, and a bad decision.
