### How to Read Your Merchant Statement (Without a Translator)
URL: https://payprosworldwide.com/blog/how-to-read-your-merchant-statement.html
Category: Rates & Fees | Published: 2026-05-28
Summary: Explains the five line items on a merchant statement where hidden fees live — interchange fees, assessment fees, processor markup, monthly/annual fees, and per-transaction fees. Introduces the effective rate formula (total fees ÷ total volume × 100) as the single most useful benchmark. Covers the difference between tiered, flat-rate, and interchange-plus pricing structures. Includes a table of common monthly fees and red flags to watch for.

### Interchange-Plus vs. Flat-Rate Pricing: Which Actually Costs Less?
URL: https://payprosworldwide.com/blog/interchange-plus-vs-flat-rate.html
Category: Pricing | Published: 2026-05-14
Summary: Compares the two most common pricing models with worked math: flat-rate at 2.6% + $0.10 vs. interchange-plus at 0.35% over interchange, on a $25,000/month retail business. Shows a $175/month ($2,100/year) difference in that scenario. Explains when flat-rate makes sense (low volume, occasional use, fast setup) and when interchange-plus wins (above ~$5k/month, significant debit mix). Also covers tiered pricing as the least transparent model.

### What the MATCH List Is — and How to Get Off It

Category: High-Risk | Published: 2026-04-22
Summary: Explains the MATCH list (Mastercard Alert to Control High-risk Merchants), also known as the TMF (Terminated Merchant File). Covers the 4 most common reason codes (excessive chargebacks being most common), the 5-year retention period, dispute process (only possible for erroneous entries), and how high-risk processors like PayPros Worldwide can help MATCH-listed merchants get approved with a rolling reserve structure.

### Surcharge Programs vs. Cash Discount Programs: What Small Businesses Need to Know
URL: https://payprosworldwide.com/blog/surcharge-vs-cash-discount.html
Category: Compliance | Published: 2026-06-10
Summary: Explains the legal and practical difference between surcharging (adding a fee to card transactions, credit only, max 3%, requires Visa/MC registration, restricted in some states) and cash discount programs (advertising a higher posted price with a discount for cash, legal in all 50 states, no registration required). Includes a side-by-side comparison, the full surcharge compliance checklist, and a decision guide for choosing between the two programs.
