Merchant Fees Paid by Businesses
$1 Billion NZD
Surcharge Paid by Customers
$90 million NZD
The Problem We Solve
Contactless payments are everywhere, but they come with a catch. New Zealanders paid $90 million NZD in surcharges - extra fees at checkout to cover high merchant service fees (MSF). Businesses, meanwhile, lost $1 billion NZD in MSF in 2024, with rates often hitting 1.2% to 2.5%+ per transaction. These costs hurt everyone: higher prices for you, slimmer profits for merchants, and a strained economy. Wallo Pay steps in to fix it.
