Why Portland Businesses Choose Dual Pricing
Traditional merchant services quietly drain thousands from your revenue each month via interchange, PCI fees, and statement fees. Dual pricing flips that model: two prices are displayed (cash and card, 4% higher), card-paying customers cover the processing cost transparently, and your cost drops to $29/month flat.
Oregon's lack of sales tax makes dual pricing particularly clean — customers see a cash price and a card price with no other numbers to calculate. The model complies fully with ORS 646A and federal Durbin Amendment rules.
A Portland retail shop processing $40,000/month in cards at a 2.6% blended rate pays $12,480/year in processing fees. With dual pricing, that drops to $348/year. That's $12,132 that stays in the business — every year.
