Credit Card Fee

The Campus Credit Card Fee remains at 0.3780% of gross credit card sales. This rate was approved by the UCLA Office of Academic Planning and Budget, which has been in effect since July 1, 2021.

The fee will cover internal administrative costs related to credit card acceptance and compliance, reconciliation and Transact Payment (formerly CashNet) support incurred by campus departments. It is based on full cost recovery and includes all related ITS expenses. The fee is distributed to the units incurring the administrative costs - Treasury Services, Accounting & Cash Management, and Payment Solutions & Compliance.

It should be noted that this fee is not to be confused with external merchant fees which are a separate charge by banks and financial institutions.
