I think visa are increasing their fees from 0.3% (EU regs) to 1.5% here.

  Huh, so the UK hasn't kept that law when leaving the EU? That's an odd decision!

    They have, but it only applies in the same jurisdiction. So it still applies to intra-UK transactions and to intra-EU transactions. But not to transactions between the two.

      Ah, that makes sense. Annoying, but makes sense.

        FWIW It's also 1.5% between Switzerland and the EU.

  But that EU limit is for debit cards right? And Amazon is excluding the credit cards while still accepting visa debit.
  • KptMarchewa 5y ago
    It's for both. 0.2% for debit, 0.3% for credit iirc.

    Unfortunately the UK is no longer in the EU.

  I think both Visa and Mastercard are increasing their fees like that, but only for payments between the UK and EU (and pretty much simultaneously too - aren't duopolies great?)
