Merchant Education:   $6+ Billion settlement from a class action suit against Visa/MasterCard will provide payment benefits    Many of you may have been notified that a Federal Court has preliminary approved a $6+ Billion settlement supporting claims that merchants paid excessive fees to accept Visa and MasterCard through violations of antitrust laws. This settlement can affect you in two major ways; an opportunity to receive a portion of the cash settlement, and an opportunity to surcharge your customers to offset your processing fees moving forward. As Chosen Payments prides ourselves on providing our merchants information and resources that will affect their business, we will continue to deliver information that is relevant. Due to the complexity and early stages of such a large settlement it is still a bit confusing and being worked out. For additional questions on how this may, or may not, affect you please reach out to your CP Relationship Manager. You can also click the below link for public information on this settlement. As CP gains more knowledge and can properly translate how this will affect each of you we will circulate more information.  https://www.paymentcardsettlement.com/en  Products & Services:   Its Tax Time; Need Extra CASH?   As taxes are fast approaching are you in need of some extra cash?
