    A Teaneck restaurant processing $55,000/month in card transactions saves approximately $1,375–$1,925/month on a cash discount program — $16,500–$23,100/year in recovered margin.

    Payment industry cost analysis — illustrative of the savings opportunity, not a guaranteed outcome.

    [02]_The fee drain

    Teaneck businesses are paying $8,400–$24,000/year to card networks on sales they've already earned.

    • 01A Cedar Lane restaurant or deli processing $55k/month in card sales pays $1,375–$1,925/month in processing fees — as much as $23,100/year handed to Visa and Mastercard.
    • 02Kosher specialty food retailers and bakeries with high transaction frequency face processing fees on every ticket. At 2.5–3.5%, even a $20 average ticket adds up to hundreds per month on consistent foot traffic.
    • 03Teaneck's independent clothing boutiques and gift shops serving the community absorb processing fees as a fixed overhead item — reducing take-home margin on every sale.
    • 04Service businesses — dry cleaners, alterations, beauty salons — running $10k–$25k in monthly card volume pay $250–$875/month in fees that never needed to leave the business.
    • 05Switching to a flat monthly program fee makes processing cost predictable regardless of card volume, ticket size, or card type mix.
