Hunts Point & Longwood Bronx Merchants: Every Card Swipe Costs You 2.5–3.5%. There's a Legal Way to Stop Paying.
A bodega near Hunts Point Market rings up $1,200 in card sales on a busy Saturday. At 2.9% plus interchange, that's $35–$45 in fees before you count the till. Multiply that across a full month and you're writing a $700–$1,500 check to a processor every 30 days — money that should stay in your business. Scaler Pay installs a fully compliant cash discount program for Bronx merchants: the terminal, the signage, and the processing. Payment processing services provided through licensed processing partners.
A Hunts Point area merchant processing $30,000/month in card transactions saves $750–$1,050/month on a cash discount program — $9,000–$12,600 per year.
