Quick Question – Credit Card Fees
October 02, 2019
ARSA’s management team is preparing the association’s 2020 budget. As it does every year, the team is exploring every way to limit expenditures and is considering the $20,000 that must be set aside annually to cover credit card transaction fees.
ARSA cannot – and would not – pass this purely administrative cost on to any member, its only means of eliminating this cost would be to cease accepting credit card payments. The association cannot – and would not – take this step if it would massively disrupt or inconvenience the members on which it depends.
Help the team consider this cost by answering this month’s “quick question”:
