Debt card

By Terry Savage on June 10, 2023 | Credit/Debt

Is there still a point of service charge for using a debit card?

Terry Says

Debit card fees are regulated by the Durbin Amendment, which is part of the 2010 Dodd-Frank legislation.

Under this law, regulated banks (i.e., those with more than $10 billion in assets) are limited to charging no more than 0.05% +$0.21 ($0.22 if fraud is suspected) per debit card transaction. This limitation applies equally to both card-present and online transactions. While smaller financial institutions are exempt from these limitations, market pressure generally keeps them from charging significantly higher debit card transaction fees.
