Processing + POS software + add-ons combined. Set to $0 if your processor says you pay nothing.
Paying $0? You're on a Cash Discount program — your customers pay the fee.
That can work well, and you can keep it. But if the program charges more than the cards actually cost, the difference isn't covering card costs — it's going to your payments company. Enter your rate and we'll show you the split.

Three costs most restaurant owners never see broken out — because the statement is designed that way.
A flat rate hides the processor's true markup. Interchange-plus pricing charges the true card cost plus a small, visible margin, so you can actually see what you're paying for.
The monthly plan you signed up for rarely stays there. Online ordering, loyalty, extra screens, “premium support” — each module has its own line, and the total grows every year you're locked in.
When your POS forces you to use its payment processing, you've lost the ability to negotiate — forever. Steep cancellation fees keep it that way. Owning your hardware and your processing relationship keeps the leverage with you.
Many of the all-in-one platforms out there are genuinely good software — that's not the issue. The issue is what they cost over five years, and whether you knew that number when you signed. Some restaurants do the math and decide the premium is worth it. Most, in our experience, wouldn't part with thousands of dollars a year if they saw the true figure side by side. That's all this tool does: show you the figure. What you do with it is up to you.
