EDGE Dual Price Program
The EDGE program is an innovative dual pricing solution that assigns both a “cash” price and a “non-cash” price to every item in your business. Similar to how gas stations have offered two prices for decades, EDGE enables you to set retail prices at the item level based on payment method, giving your customers the choice and your business the savings.
Through the combination of flat-rate pricing and cash discount programming, merchants secure one low rate on every transaction while offering a discounted price to customers who pay with cash. It’s a compliant, transparent, and proven approach already used by 30–40% of all new merchant submissions.
How the EDGE Program Works
EDGE is built on a simple, legal, two-price model that benefits both you and your customers.
Set Your Retail Prices
The merchant sets their standard retail price to reflect a 4% increase across all items. This becomes the non-cash (card) price displayed to customers.
Automatic Cash Discount
Through EDGE’s cash discount programming, a lower cash price is automatically calculated and displayed for every item, giving customers the choice to save by paying with cash.
One Low Flat Rate
You secure a flat rate of 3.8461% on every card transaction with no interchange, no PCI fees, and no surprise charges. Sales tax is calculated automatically on the correct total.

Consumers Already Understand
For decades, gas stations across the country have displayed two prices for every grade of fuel: a credit/debit price and a cash price. Consumers understand and accept this model as a standard part of commerce. EDGE brings this same transparent, dual-price approach to retail, hospitality, quick-serve restaurants, and any merchant accepting card payments. Every item simply carries two prices, and the customer chooses how to pay.
This isn’t a surcharge, and it’s not a traditional “cash discount” add-on. It’s a true dual-price model built into the item pricing itself, all items have two prices.
