Anyone know how the various credit cards charge for transaction fees? Is it a flat amount per transaction, or is it a percentage of the amount?

The financial institutions makes 2% of the purchase...

 

[Matt Collins]

Often times they'll do like 2% + $.30/per transaction or some such combination.

The financial institutions charge a flat rate + a percentage, so it's more efficient to donate a larger $ amount. I want to give $177.60, but I've already donate a bigger figure twice on this credit card statement + tshirts and other expenses to Iowa. Although I like to stick to a budget, I may have to spring for that extra $177.60. To hell with the budget.

 

[Matt Collins]

To hell with the budget.

I hope you never run for office!

I hope you never run for office!

I have, but lucky for me, didn't win. If it makes you feel better, I pay my credit card off every month.

I have a pre-paid mastercard i use for anything i buy online and it charges 1.00 per transaction instead of a percentage...

I have, but lucky for me, didn't win.

I can't imagine someone that looks like you not winning an election. You should've used more pics

17.76 sent to the blessed Ron Paul.

 

[Matt Collins]

Perhaps $177.60 is the happy medium?

 

[Matt Collins]

The day is almost over...

 

[ShaneC]

meh, I did my 17.76 a day early

I've been lurking for a while, finally decided to sign up.

Sorry, I didn't donate $17.76 today. I instead tossed Ron a 50 donation. I was going to do multiple 17.76 donations, but didn't want to take the extra time to 'be cute'.
