Aquisição
Os bancos patrocinadores e processadores dos EUA suportam a precificação interchange-plus desde o primeiro dólar. Os tokens de rede (VTS, MDES, Amex Token) estão habilitados por padrão para aumentar as taxas de aprovação de credenciais armazenadas.
Regulamentação
O comércio eletrónico nos EUA não tem um mandato federal de SCA, mas os modelos de risco do lado do emissor ainda beneficiam do 3DS em transações de alto risco. PCI DSS, leis estaduais de privacidade (CCPA/CPRA) e Reg E para ACH aplicam-se.
Market context
The US processes roughly $10 trillion in card payments annually, with Visa and Mastercard combined commanding around 80% of card volume, Amex roughly 13% and Discover the remainder. Ecommerce is about 16% of total retail and growing at double-digit rates. Buy-Now-Pay-Later (Affirm, Afterpay, Klarna) now represents over $90 billion in annual GMV, with the heaviest concentration in apparel, beauty and home goods.
Scheme mix
Debit volume is split roughly 60% Visa, 30% Mastercard and 10% on PIN-only domestic networks (Star, Pulse, NYCE, Maestro, Interlink). Durbin-eligible debit (issuers over $10B in assets) is capped at 0.05% plus $0.22, and Cardflo's routing engine selects the cheapest enabled debit network per transaction. Credit interchange ranges from roughly 1.4% for regulated debit to 3.5% for premium rewards cards.
Interchange & fees
US interchange is not regulator-capped (other than Durbin debit). Effective blended rates vary heavily by MCC, AOV and card mix: a typical DTC merchant sees 2.1 to 2.5%, a B2B merchant on commercial cards can see 2.6 to 3.0%, and a subscription merchant skews higher due to recurring premium-rewards usage. Level 2 and Level 3 data on commercial cards can recover 30 to 80 bps for eligible MCCs.
Common challenges
Subscription false-decline rates can reach 12 to 15% on the first renewal without account updater, network tokens and intelligent retry. Issuer behaviour varies sharply, JPMorgan Chase and Capital One use machine-learning risk models that respond to consistent merchant signalling; smaller credit-union issuers are more rule-based. Chargeback ratios are monitored by Visa VAMP at 0.9% of transactions and Mastercard ECP at 1.5%.

FAQ
Podem integrar comerciantes de CBD e cânhamo dos EUA?
Sim. A Cardflo trabalha com bancos patrocinadores que integram negócios de CBD e cânhamo conformes na aquisição de Nível 1.
Do you offer interchange-plus pricing in the US?
Yes. US merchants are priced interchange-plus from the first dollar, with monthly statements that reconcile interchange, scheme fees and acquirer margin separately.
Can I accept ACH alongside cards?
Yes. ACH (including Same Day ACH where eligible) is supported alongside card acceptance, with returns and Reg E handling built into the platform.
Do you support Level 2 and Level 3 data submission?
Yes. For eligible commercial-card MCCs, Cardflo can pass enhanced Level 2 and Level 3 data (tax, customer code, line items, freight) to qualify transactions for lower interchange. The recovery is typically 30 to 80 bps on commercial-card volume.
How does debit routing work under Durbin?
Regulated debit cards must offer at least two unaffiliated network routes per the Federal Reserve's Reg II update. Cardflo evaluates available networks per transaction and selects the cheapest enabled rail, which can save 5 to 15 bps versus signature-debit default routing.
