ETA Policy Positions on Industry Issues PDF Print E-mail

The Electronic Transactions Association has released formal policy positions with regard to issues which are important to the payments industry and, in particular, to reflect the broad interests of its members. The policy positions were reaffirmed by a vote of ETA's Board of Directors in January 2011.

As a recognized and valuable stakeholder in the payments system, the ETA has developed these policy positions with input from ETA’s members and reflect the association’s commitment to promote the growth and integrity of the transaction processing industry in a cooperative effort with each of the card brands.

In advocating for these policy positions, ETA seeks to achieve the following goals:
  • Enhance the System of Interchange to Promote Adaptability and Growth;

  • Attain Greater Consideration of Interchange Compliance Issues;

  • Provide Merchants the Option to Assess Surcharge Fees;

  • Protect and Maintain Industry Self-Regulation of Data Security Standards;

  • Assure Consistent Application of Card Industry Rules and Regulations; and

  • Achieve Direct Sponsorship for Qualified Payments Companies.
