Co pokrývá MCC 7278

Kód kategorie obchodníka (MCC) 7278 je identifikátor ISO 18245 používaný karetními sítěmi pro nákupní a spotřebitelské služby a kluby. Akvizitoři, emitenti a regulátoři používají tento kód k nastavení mezibankovních poplatků, poplatků za schéma, pravidel pro podvody a kategorií hlášení pro každou transakci, kterou vaše firma zpracovává.

Osobní nákupy a nákupní kluby. Volba správného MCC je klíčová: nesprávný kód může vést k vyšším mezibankovním poplatkům, příplatkům nebo, v regulovaných kategoriích, k odmítnutým transakcím a pozastavení účtů.

MCC 7278 covers Buying and Shopping Services and Clubs. This includes personal shoppers, concierge services focused on acquiring goods, and membership clubs offering exclusive purchasing access or discounts.

Ticket sizes can vary widely – small for membership fees, high for luxury goods purchased through a personal shopper. Frequency ranges from recurring (memberships) to infrequent (specific purchase requests).

Chargebacks can be a moderate risk, particularly for services involving high-value goods where 'merchandise not as described' or 'non-receipt of goods' claims might arise. For membership clubs, 'recurring payment not authorised' or 'service cancellation dispute' are possible.

Scheme rules generally treat these as standard e-commerce or subscription merchants.

Cardflo's payment orchestration helps these merchants manage diverse payment types and mitigate risk through advanced fraud screening and flexible routing to appropriate acquirers.

Acquirer & underwriting stance

Low-to-medium risk standard board. While direct chargeback risk might not be excessive for low-value recurring memberships, high-value purchases arranged by personal shoppers can introduce 'friendly fraud' or 'item not as described' risks.

Standard monitoring is applied, and reserves are generally not required unless specific risk factors emerge.

Časté dotazy

How do recurring membership fees in MCC 7278 differ in payment processing from one-off buying services?

Recurring membership fees are processed under scheme rules for subscription payments, qualifying for 3D Secure exemptions after the initial authentication. This reduces friction for ongoing payments.

One-off buying services, especially for high-value items, typically require full 3D Secure authentication (if CNP) or robust fraud screening to mitigate chargebacks related to 'merchant non-fulfilment' or 'item not as described'.

What kind of fraud is most common for personal shopping services under MCC 7278?

For personal shopping services, common fraud types include 'friendly fraud' where the customer claims non-receipt or dissatisfaction after receiving the high-value item, and criminal fraud where stolen card data is used to purchase goods through the service.

Ensuring comprehensive proof of delivery, robust ID verification at handover, and advanced fraud screening for CNP transactions are critical.

How can Cardflo's platform help a concierge shopping service manage payment fraud?

Cardflo offers advanced fraud monitoring tools that integrate with external fraud prevention systems. For a concierge shopping service, this means real-time transaction scoring, identification of suspicious patterns, and the ability to apply pre-defined rules based on transaction value, location, and card type.

Our platform also facilitates routing to acquirers with specific expertise in managing high-value e-commerce transactions, bolstering security and approval rates.
