Credit Card Processing Fee (500-010)

This campus policy establishes a fee to be charged for credit cards processed for auxiliaries by the Student Financial Services office at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs (UCCS). This fee is based upon an average of the discount rates charged by companies whose credit cards are accepted by UCCS (currently VISA, MasterCard, and American Express). These discount rates vary by company and also vary based on whether the credit card is present for the transaction and a swipe terminal is used or the credit card information is manually entered when the credit card is not present.
