I take it you are in the US. Look at your debit card’s back. There are other networks the card may be charged through instead of as a credit card through visa.

I take it you are in the US. Look at your debit card’s back. There are other networks the card may be charged through instead of as a credit card through visa. Likely those networks are Star, Pulse, etc. These process as DEBIT cards, Visa is a CREDIT card company. When you go into a store and they ask you to run it as debit or credit and you say debit, it uses one of these other networks. The fees are usually much lower than running it through Visa.
