Zero Fee Credit Card Processing for Bars & Nightlife in Seattle, WA

Why bars & nightlife in Seattle, WA are switching to dual pricing

A bar running $30,000 a month in card volume at a typical 3.1% effective rate hands roughly $930 every month to processors — about $11,160 a year that never reaches your bank account. Dual pricing removes that line item. You publish a cash price and a card price, the card price absorbs the processing cost, and your deposit equals your cash price. Your only cost is a flat $20 per month.

What changes at the counter

• Your menu, shelf tags, or service board show both prices side by side.
• The terminal displays the card price before the customer taps or swipes.
• The receipt itemizes the price the customer actually paid.
• Cash-paying customers get the lower price, which many bars & nightlife find increases cash tickets.

Built for the way bars & nightlife actually operate

We configure the terminal around your ticket mix, tipping, and refund workflow before it ships, so Seattle owners aren't left programming hardware during a rush. Refunds, voids, partial payments, and end-of-day batching all work the way your staff already expects.

Compliance in Washington

Card brand rules require clear disclosure of the card price before the transaction is completed. Every account includes counter and door signage, terminal prompts, and receipt language reviewed against current Visa and Mastercard guidance for Washington merchants.
