Let's stop using $1 as a bar since it's extremely misleading. The lowest purchase of Robux is $5 USD, which would make the charge $0.46, or less than 10%. This is also Stripe's added-on fee.
Large players also get very little interchange fees charged onto them because they can negotiate.

Walmart pays very little interchange, I can also assume Google/Apple negotiated good rates.
- ZephyrBlu 6y agoReally weird how the example was $1. Micropayments is a common problem that is yet to be solved as far as I'm aware, so choosing the worst possible example to paint CC/payment processing companies in a bad light is extremely disingenuous.

- donmcronald 6y agoIt’s been a very, very long time since I bought something for $1 on an App Store. Most stuff is $3-5 now based on my experience.
