7 MasterCard Expands Contactless Aggregation Rules to include Bridge/Road Fees, Tolls The Program: MasterCard currently permits Transit (Suburban and Local Commuter Passenger, including Ferries and Bus Lines) merchants who accept contactless payments to aggregate transactions. Transaction aggregation helps support a fast-paced transaction environment for consumers to pay for transit fares and to permit entry. The Change: MasterCard will enable Bridge and Road Fee/Toll merchants (MCC 4784) to participate in transaction aggregation. The Impact: Participating merchants may combine multiple taps (visits by the consumer) into a single transaction amount. Transit and Bridge and Road Fee/Toll merchants are permitted to combine up to 14 days of MasterCard product transactions from the initial authorization or up to an aggregated amount of $15.00, whichever comes first. For Maestro transactions the aggregation timeframe is up to three days. MasterCard will permit authorization requests to be submitted for any amount not exceeding the established chargeback protection amount ($15.00) in addition to the current Post-Authorized Aggregated transaction criteria: Transit or Bridge and Road Fee Toll merchant category code PayPass POS entry mode Transit transaction type indicator (MasterCard or Maestro Post-Authorized Aggregated) Information about acceptance environment (card and cardholder presence, terminal attendance, terminal capability, identification of normal request or Preauthorized request) MasterCard Digital Enablement Service Enhancements The Program: Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) technology is accomplished by manipulating the magnetic field of the mag-stripe reader to transmit magnetic stripe data from a mobile device. A signal is received by the magnetic read head of the card reader. The received signal emulates the same magnetic data fields as a traditional magnetic stripe card transaction. The Change: MasterCard is modifying existing edits to enable the processing of tokenized transactions initiated by the use of Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) technology. The Impact: This technology enables merchants with only mag-stripe readers to accept tokenized transactions from mobile devices. Products that currently support this technology are wallets such as Loop Pay and Coin Supported on all phone types Transactions are card present with a POS entry-mode of 90 (swiped) 7
8 MasterCard to Support Multiple Clearing Records for Single Card-Not-Present Authorization The Program: Similar to Visa s Multiple Clearing Records for Single Card-Not-Present Authorization Program that was communicated in the Winter 2014 newsletter, MasterCard is developing a similar transaction processing solution for T&E and Ecommerce merchants that ship goods from various sites over multiple days. The Change: MasterCard will introduce new settlement values in an existing field for merchants to identify the multi-clearing indicator. The multi-clearing indicator will be used in conjunction with the approval code, and Banknet Reference Number for Issuers to accurately manage a cardholder s open-to-buy limits. The Impact: The new Multi-Clearing Enhancement allows merchants the option to submit multiple clearing transactions for a single authorization, versus waiting to submit a single clearing transaction once all items are ready for shipment. Example Scenario: Items in Cart 1 pair of jeans $50 Original Auth Shipping Day Total Auth Clearing Amount 2 $210 $50 1 pair of shoes $60 $210 3 $210 $60 1 jacket $100 6 $210 $100 Multi-clearing Indicator Previously approved authorization, partial amount, multi-clearing Previously approved authorization, partial amount, multi-clearing Previously approved authorization, partial amount, final-clearing Merchants interested in supporting MasterCard s Multiple Clearing Records for Single Card-Not-Present Authorizaiton Program should contact their Relationship Manager.

The Change: MasterCard will update the Acquirer POS Cross Border Fees. The Impact: Effective April 1, 2015 the following rate modifications will be implemented: The Cross Border rate will increase by 0.20% to 0.60% on transactions when the Issuer location is non-u.s. and the merchant transaction currency is U.S. dollars The Cross Border rate will increase by 0.20% to 1.00% on transactions when the Issuer location is non-u.s. and the merchant transaction currency is not U.S. dollars 8

MasterCard AVS Fee Increase The Program: The Address Verification Service is a service offered by MasterCard that helps merchants to identify the probability of fraud risk, allowing for suspect transactions to be flagged for potential additional fraud screening or manual review. Transactions where the address information presented by the merchant matches the address data maintained by the card issuer are less likely to be fraudulent than those transactions where AVS was not present at all. The Change: Effective August 2015, MasterCard is increasing the AVS fee for all transaction types. The Impact: Merchants will notice an increase to MasterCard AVS fees on their invoice beginning in August. 9

The Change: A decline may occur if Visa doesn t support the cardholder verification value, or some or all chip data was missing from the transaction in order for Visa to validate the cryptogram. The Impact: Merchants who support the acceptance of contact or contactless chip transactions may see an increase in authorization declines if full chip data is not sent and the Point-of-Service Entry Mode value is one of the following: 05 (Integrated circuit card read; CVV or icvv checking is possible) 07 (Contactless device-read originated using VSDC chip data rules) 95 (Integrated circuit card read; CVV or icvv checking may not be possible) Visa Corporate & Purchasing Card Interchange Program Name Changes The Program: Visa has announced they are modifying the names of certain interchange rate programs.
