for the next five years," 'The Hill' reports. .

call in recognizing what a bad deal
this would have been for Main Street
merchants and their customers. , Christopher Jones, member of the executive committee
of the Merchants Payments Coalition (MPC), via 'The Hill'.
Itâs extremely unusual for a judge to
reject a settlement at the preliminary
stage, so this shows how far Visa and
Mastercardâs proposal missed the mark, Christopher Jones, member of the executive committee
of the Merchants Payments Coalition (MPC), via 'The Hill'.
The average swipe fee that retailers
pay is 2.24%, but it can go up to 4%,
according to the National Retail Federation.
The credit card payment market
has been broken for decades. , The Retail Industry Leaders Association, via 'The Hill'.
Leading retailers are grateful that
Judge Brodie saw through the facade
of the proposed settlement.., The Retail Industry Leaders Association, via 'The Hill'.
... and understood that it would not
provide the meaningful change that is
needed to correct the competitive
imbalance in the interchange ecosystem, The Retail Industry Leaders Association, via 'The Hill'.
Retailers have also called on lawmakers to pass the Credit Card Competition Act.
Supporters claim that the bill would break
up Visa and Mastercard's dominance
and allow for more competition
