Increasing credit card transaction fees are a growing concern for Canadian retailers and small businesses. As a result of inflation, many businesses are raising prices. Still, small businesses are reluctant to pass on additional fees to their customers, according to a recent CFIB report - this means business-to-business invoices for suppliers and vendors will most likely pass on this cost.
Feedback from Xero small business customers found that small business customers indicated that they were most concerned with finding less expensive and more efficient ways to be paid - without increasing costs for themselves. In response, Xero recently announced two new integrations, allowing businesses to send invoices via Interac e-transfer, thereby reducing costs and improving efficiency. DirectPay and Clik2Pay, allow customers to use Interac e-transfer as the default payment method.
