MIXED Pricing* - Basic Charges per Transaction

Detailed Invoicing*
Regardless of the card type, in the case of detailed invoicing**, the charges include IRF + Scheme Cost + 0.30% per transaction as Transaction Clearing Services Fee ("ACS") paid to epay for the provision of transaction clearing services.

*New cooperation agreements must be signed for the above to be valid.

• The above charges apply per successful transaction, exempt from VAT according to current regulations. If VAT or any other tax/fee/economic burden is imposed on transactions/services, the business will be charged accordingly.
• Credit to the account is made within one (1) working day from the submission of the transaction for clearing, free of charge, or alternatively within one (1) calendar day from the submission of the transaction for clearing, with a charge of €4.00 per MID per month (service 'AllWeekPay').

** Regulation (EU) 2015/751 and the 2nd Payment Services Directive (PSD2) provide businesses with the ability to invoice for card acceptance services using a transparent fee model known as Interchange++. This model consists of three cost components: (1) Interchange, which refers to the interbank fees charged by card-issuing banks and is described on the websites of International Card Schemes. As an example, the current interbank fees are 0.20% for debit card transactions by individuals in businesses within the EEA with card-present transactions (which represent the majority of transactions), and 0.30% for credit card transactions by individuals, respectively. Under certain conditions, in some transactions and depending on the card's type, country of issuance, or usage, the interbank fee can range from 0.20% to 2.00%. (2) The costs imposed by Card Schemes on the transaction - these costs are detailed on our website www.epayworldwide.gr. Indicatively, these costs range from 0.10% for transactions at physical terminals to 0.70% for online or MO/TO transactions. (3) The fees and other costs of the Acquiring Service Provider.

Illustrative example of cost calculation using the Interchange++ model:
For a transaction amount of €50 with a Visa debit card issued to individuals, using Interchange + 0.30% invoicing, the corresponding Interchange fee is €0.10 (€50 X 0.20%), the Card Schemes' costs are €0.05 (€50 X 0.10%), and the epay fee and other costs amount to €0.15 (€50 X 0.30%). Therefore, the business's account will be credited with €49.70 (€50 - €0.10 - €0.05 - €0.15) for this specific transaction.

for physical terminals:

• DCC (Dynamic Currency Conversion) service, with a 1% commission refund on the turnover of transactions executed using the DCC service for non-euro issued cards, while your
• customers pay in their own currency.
• Digital content products & gift cards that can generate additional revenue and traffic for the pharmacy.
• Additional flexibility with the SoftPOS application, which allows your Android mobile to function as a terminal.

for e-commerce:

• One-click Pay (tokenization) for quick payment completion without entering card details in recurring transactions.
• Support for card transactions via phone with the epay by link service.
• Multicurrency services for e-shops targeting markets outside the eurozone, with support for dozens of foreign currencies.

for all collection channels:

• By activating "AllWeekPay"***, transaction settlement is immediate, and payment amounts are available in the cooperating company's bank account early the next morning, including holidays and weekends. With this feature, pharmacists do not have to wait until Monday or the next business day to access card payments in their Piraeus Bank account and use the corresponding amount. The "AllWeekPay"*** capability works in conjunction with banking tools such as interest-free installment prepayment and open working capital (whose limit is recycled by card transaction credits) but also independently, as a primary means to cover immediate operational needs, accelerating daily cash flows, especially at the level of small businesses.
• For more information regarding functionality or if a pharmacist does not wish to continue receiving this service, they can contact the Business Service Center at 210 38 98 954.
