Small Business Program to Eliminate Credit Card Processing Fees: Solution Update

Oct 2, 2026

Better Payments Solutions has updated its cash discount program to help U.S. small and mid-sized businesses manage rising credit card processing costs with flexible payment options and POS support.

Oswego, United States, October 2, 2026 /NewsNetwork/ -- Better Payments Solutions, a Northern Media Services offering, has expanded its cash discount solution for U.S. small and medium-sized businesses facing rising credit card processing expenses. The updated program gives retailers, restaurants, professional service providers, e-commerce businesses, and hybrid merchants a way to address payment costs while continuing to accept card transactions through existing systems.

The expansion comes as credit card processing costs continue to put pressure on business margins. According to the Nilson Report, the average swipe fee for Visa- and Mastercard-branded credit cards rose to 2.36% of the transaction amount in 2025, with total swipe fees reaching $118.8 billion for the year. For businesses processing substantial card volume, these recurring expenses can significantly impact operating margins.

Better Payments Solutions' cash discount model gives merchants a way to address processing expenses by offering customers a discount when they choose to pay with cash. The company says its zero-fee solution can eliminate merchant processing fees while allowing businesses to continue accepting card payments. The model supports in-store, online, and hybrid operations through integrated payment technology.

Implementation includes guidance on selecting payment systems, with the company working directly with point-of-sale providers on setup and on-site training.

"For many business owners, processing fees are treated as a cost they simply have to accept as part of taking card payments," said a company spokesperson. "When those charges accumulate across hundreds or thousands of transactions, they can become a meaningful expense that is easy to overlook when evaluating the profitability of each sale."

Better Payments Solutions provides 24/7 live support for merchants, along with guidance on payment technology and implementation. The company reports that small businesses using its cash discount model save an average of $7,500 annually, with some generating savings of up to $100,000 per year, depending on transaction volume.

In addition to its cash discount solution, Better Payments Solutions offers merchant accounts and payment processing services to help small businesses simplify payment management and retain more revenue per transaction. The company notes that compliant cash discounting can be used nationwide when implemented according to card network requirements.

Japan tame North Korea to win Games gold after shootout drama

Japan tame North Korea to win Games gold after shootout drama

JAPAN — Hosts Japan won their third straight Asian Games women's football gold on Friday, edging North Korea on penalties after a 2-2 draw in a dramatic final. Yuzuho Shiokoshi scored the decisive penalty as Japan, who reached the final without conceding a goal, won 5-3 in the shootout to claim the title for the fourth time. North Korea changed their goalkeeper in the final minute of extra time but it was not enough to give them their first gold since 2014. The hosts looked in full control when Mami Ueno gave them the lead in the 32nd minute in Shizuoka. But Jong Kum bundled in an equalizer two minutes into the second half that was eventually given after a VAR check, before Jon Ryong Jong put North Korea ahead in the 69th minute. Japan's Hanon Nishio equalized with four minutes left to send the game into extra time. The teams could not be separated and North Korea brought on substitute goalkeeper Chae Un Gyong to help their cause. Instead it was Japan goalkeeper Shu Ohba who was the hero, stopping Jong's penalty in the only miss of the shootout. North Korea were backed by groups of red-clad supporters among the crowd of over 6,000. Japan and North Korea went into the final having each scored 26 goals in the previous rounds. The two teams had also shared the previous six Asian Games titles, winning three each. Japan coach Michihisa Kano won his first title since replacing Greenland-born Nils Nielsen. Nielsen led Japan to the Asian Cup title in Australia in March but was fired 12 days later. North Korea were looking to extend their astonishing recent run of international success in women's football. They have won three world titles at age-group level in the last two years, and North Korean club Naegohyang Women's FC became Asian champions in May after a final tournament played in South Korea. Women's football is one of the strongest international sports for diplomatically isolated and impoverished North Korea, with their national sides regularly competing at the highest levels in Asia and globally.

Philippines tennis star Eala says 'I get overwhelmed sometimes'

NAGOYA, Japan — Alexandra Eala admitted on Friday that she gets "overwhelmed sometimes" by the huge weight of expectation placed on her as a trailblazer for tennis in the Philippines. The 21-year-old leaves the Asian Games having fallen short of her ambition to win gold for her country, instead settling for bronze. Eala is followed everywhere by adoring fans eager for a piece of the world number 18, who in August became the first player from the Philippines to win a title on the women's WTA Tour. "I definitely do get overwhelmed sometimes," said Eala. "But I understand that it's such a privilege to be in the position that I'm in and to be able to live out the dreams that I've always had as a kid. "So it's something I've had to accept that it comes with the job, and this is how things are. "I'm ready for the challenge." Eala, who skipped the prestigious China Open in Beijing to play for her country at the Asian Games, said she would take away good memories despite exiting in the semi-finals in a three-set defeat to China's lower-ranked Wang Xinyu. Wang went on to beat compatriot Zhang Shuai to win gold on Friday. "It does come with pressure, but I'm really happy that I was able to compete here," said Eala, who was the top seed. "To be able to share it with the Filipino people is really important," she added. "No regrets. I left everything on the court," said Eala. With Games gold comes direct qualification for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. Eala said it was still her "dream" to play in LA. "There are other ways of qualifying for the Olympics, so I guess it's also an extra motivation," she said. "Competing in the Olympics is definitely a dream of mine. So, if anything, I leave here more motivated."
