EVTA Recent Updates

Following are recent program updates and new Electronic Value Transfer programs.

MasterCard and Visa have notified us of rate changes in some of their interchange categories. Under provisions of the EVTA Contract with Global Payments, Inc., these rates will be passed through to contract users. The rate changes will be effective April 1, 2005.

EVTA Authorized Users accepting MasterCard and Visa through face-to-face transactions or non face-to-face transactions (for Authorized Users Not Qualifying for MasterCard's Public Sector Interchange category) will be impacted by the changes to the following interchange categories:

Card Category	Old Rate 4/1/2004	New Rate 4/1/2005
MC - Merit I (Non-face-to-face transactions)	1.90% + $.10	1.95% + $.10
MC - Merit III Base (Face-to-Face transactions)	1.54% + $ .10	1.63% + $ .10
Visa - CPS/Retail Debit - All Other (Face-to-Face transactions)	1.05% + $ .15	1.03% + $ .15

Agencies using blended/bundled pricing should refer to the updated pricing tables to determine how these changes will impact their rates.

In addition to the rate changes noted above that directly impact all EVTA Authorized Users, both MasterCard and Visa are adding new categories for their high end credit cards that will also impact EVTA Authorized Users if a customer uses a specific type of charge card. The new card categories listed below increase the merchant's cost of processing transactions for customers using a MasterCard World credit card or a Visa Rewards (CPS Rewards 1) or Signature (CPS Rewards 2) credit card.

Authorized Users accepting those cards for a transaction will incur a surcharge that will be reflected on their monthly invoice. That surcharge will be the difference between the blended/bundled rate for standard charge cards and the rate for high end cards. For example, if a Visa Signature card is accepted for a face to face transaction for which the Visa fee interchange rate would have been 1.54%, an additional fee of .36% will be charged (the difference between the 1.54% regular interchange rate and the 1.90% Signature card rate).

Shown below are the rates for customers using a standard card vs. using a "high end" type card. The categories listed in bold face type are applicable to EVTA Authorized Users. (Note: For Visa, the new CPS Rewards 1 and CPS Rewards 2 categories replace all standard categories when a Rewards or Signature card is used. The table below only lists the categories applicable to EVTA Authorized Users.)

Standard Card Categories	New High End Card Categories	Standard Card Rate 4/1/2005	High End Card Rate 4/1/2005
Consumer Standard	World MasterCard Standard	2.70% + $ .10	2.90% + $ .10

Volume Discount Rates to Lower Fees for Many EVTA Users (effective August 1, 2004)

The aggregate number of transactions for the past 12 months has reached a contractual threshold that will now allow certain EVTA authorized users to qualify for volume discount rates for the six-month period beginning August 1, 2004. The volume discount rates apply to the Percent Only Fee Discount in the blended/bundled rates and fees for MasterCard and Visa. If your organization is currently being billed under the Percent Only Fee option on any of the following tables, the volume discount rates will automatically be reflected on your monthly bills.

If you are not currently being billed under the Percent Only Fee option, you may wish to review the appropriate volume discount table and compare those rates to your current rates to determine whether it would be advantageous to your organization to switch over to the Percent Only Fee option for MasterCard and Visa. You should contact Global, the EVTA MasterCard/Visa vendor, if you think that switching would benefit your organization. A link to the EVTA Contract Rate Schedules page is located at the bottom of this page.
