The costs vary on turnover but I pay around 2.5 % for VISA transactions and 35p per Switch transaction. I don't like losing the 2.5% but it really does get a lot more money spent in the gallery and on customer re-prints - especially in December!! I find several business customers are able to pay by credit card and this helps to avoid the lack of deposit on "last minute orders". Overall, customers also see you as massively more professional when you accept cards (in my sector anyway), and this compensates for Streamline making their cut.
