Swipe Fee Fairness
By adding your voice to our growing coalition of Tennessee merchants, you have strengthened our effort to end unjust treatment for Tennessee’s tax collecting businesses.
It is simply not right that payment card companies continue to reap a windfall because your company is required to collect taxes for state and local governments. We are working to end their practice of charging interchange fees – or “swipe fees” – on the tax collection portion of a sales transaction. As card usage continues to grow as a means of payment, Tennessee’s businesses are paying more and more in swipe fees to fulfill their obligations as state tax collectors.
If you have not done so already, please contact your state legislators and ask them to work for swipe fee fairness for Tennessee businesses.
