How much will TWINT cost me as a merchant?

The costs for using TWINT as a merchant depend on the way in which you accept TWINT payments.

With the basic QR code stickers (variable or fixed amount), you can collect payments at simple conditions and without having to connect the payment method to a system (e.g. integration in cash-register software). The transaction fee for the basic QR code sticker offered by TWINT AG is 1.3% of the transaction amount.

With the “QR code stickers with payment information”, you can likewise collect payments without having to connect the payment method to a system. In so doing, you can include certain text fields (such as the name and address of the customer or the payment purpose) in the payment process and decide which fields are optional and which must be filled in in order to be able to complete the payment. The transaction fee for QR code stickers with payment information from TWINT AG is 1.3% of the transaction amount plus a fixed charge of CHF 0.30 per transaction.*

Different conditions may apply for other types of connection, such as use in online shops, via a payment service provider or plug-in provider, being integrated into your cash register system with payment terminals or even in your vending machines. Should you have any questions on this topic, please contact your payment service provider directly.

*Introductory offer: The fixed charge of CHF 0.30 per transaction will be waived until 31 December 2023.
