With credit card transactions, different levels of data submission are critical for businesses engaged in different types of transactions. Referrers and Merchants can receive up to 40-100 basis points of reduced fees on their qualifying business and commercial card transactions.

There are three levels of interchange data submission available:

provides information , is required high-value (large ticket) and provides

Level I1

Basic transaction data like card number, expiration date, CVV, and transaction amount that is required for standard business-to-consumer (B2C) transactions and provide standard interchange rates.

Level II2

More detailed transaction data, like a sales tax and order number, is required for B2B transactions and

can provide lower interchange rates.

Level III3

Comprehensive transaction

data like line item details and shipping

for

B2B transactions

can qualify for the lowest interchange rates.

Major card brands Visa & MasterCard each have specific requirements that merchants must adhere to to offer them the best interchange rates. American Express and Discover do not accept direct Level II 2 or Level III 3 data submissions for lower interchange rates at this time.

Tip

American Express & Discover

There is no additional work or line item data submisssion submission required by American Express or Discover.

Both card brands provide lower interchange rates on their respective networks, calculated and adjusted based exclusively on the cardholder’s card type (e.g. business card, corporate card, etc.).

...

To take advantage of lower interchange rates, this Level II and Level III data must be submitted alongside your transaction. This ensures the customer’s card brand network can receive and assess the data to determine which interchange rate the transaction will receive.

Info

Before you begin, we recommend checking each card’s eligibility for Level II and Level III processing as American Express and Discover don’t offer direct data submission options for Level II or III to qualify for lower interchange rates. A simple query shown below will quickly identify the card type:

GET https://test-api.payrix.com/bins

The response will display the method (card brand), type (debit, credit, or both), and card category (personal, corporate card, etc.), which will allow you to know before submitting the additional data if the card brand network supports lower interchange rates or Level II or Level III data submissions.

There are multiple methods to submit Level II or Level III data, read through the basic methods below to find the best workflow for your business:

Portal
