MCC 9402 is specifically assigned to national postal authorities and post offices, encompassing services such as postage stamps, parcel delivery, P. O.

box rentals, and sometimes financial services like money orders or bill payments. These are often government-owned or quasi-governmental entities.

Ticket sizes are generally small to medium for postage and parcel services, but can be larger for specific express deliveries or financial products. Payment frequency is moderate to high, as postal services are widely used by both individuals and businesses.

Chargebacks are typically very low, mostly arising from service delivery issues (e. g.

, lost mail, delayed parcels) or billing errors. Scheme rules usually classify these as low-risk due to the official nature and high trust.

Vanliga frågor

Do postal services using MCC 9402 qualify for any specific interchange benefits?

Similar to other government/public service categories, postal services can sometimes qualify for preferential interchange rates from schemes, especially for debit card transactions. This encourages the adoption of electronic payments for everyday services.

The benefits would typically be reflected in lower transaction processing fees for the postal service through their acquirer.

What are the common chargeback scenarios for postal services and how are they managed?

Chargebacks for postal services are infrequent. They typically stem from 'service not as described' (e.

g. , delayed or lost parcels), 'duplicate processing' (accidental re-billing), or 'credit not processed' (for refunds).

Effective management involves meticulous tracking of shipments, clear communication of delivery standards, and prompt resolution of customer complaints to prevent escalation to a chargeback. Evidence such as tracking numbers and proof of delivery are key in dispute resolution.
