Better Rates & Pricing Structure for Schools starts with Emerging Market Incentive Interchange for Schools.

The incentive Interchange is available for both Swiped or Keyed methods of acceptance for Visa Credit & Debit (approximately 70% of card share) plus MasterCard Debit.

Vantage focuses on your bottom line cost of service and helps your organization qualify of the lowest possible Interchange rates available. We also eliminate the monthly minimum fee so you are not paying fees during the off season.
