ASB Decreases Merchant Services Fees To Further Support Kiwi Businesses
Thursday, 10 December 2020, 12:07 pm
Press Release: ASB Bank
ASB welcomes the Government’s announcement today that
it will consult on merchant services fees and has
immediately moved to implement a substantial rebate for
small and medium sized ASB business customers until the
outcome of the consultation. The rebate announced today will
be back dated to 1 December 2020.
ASB’s Executive
General Manager Business Banking Tim Deane says, “Merchant
services fees are a complex eco system involving multiple
financial services parties. A large portion of the fee
relates to interchange fees over which ASB has little
control, which is why it’s timely, necessary and welcome
for the Government to provide overarching direction to the
industry via this consultation.”
“ASB is committed
to backing Kiwi businesses in these challenging times.
We’re pleased to be able to put more money in the hands of
our business customers at what is a crucial time in the
trading year. We know every bit counts after such a tough
year.”
