We have added a link directly to Visa's Merchant Surcharge Form.
Once you have completed the required notifications, return to Chargezoom and check the box confirming that you understand the compliance requirements for both Visa and your State laws. When complete click Enable.
Now, you can enter the surcharge percent that you wish to charge. Please note: Chargezoom's surcharging program is Visa-compliant, which restricts surcharging to 3%.
