3% Convenience Fee to be Added to AHA Credit Card Payments
Effective June 1, 2019, a 3% Convenience Fee will be added by AHA to payments made by Credit Card. The Convenience Fee charge does not apply if the customer submits payment by cash, check or money order.
The 3% convenience fee for credit card transactions was voted on and approved by the AHA Board of Directors on March 8, 2019, as part of the budget planning for Fiscal Year 2020. A steady growth in credit card processing fees has occurred over the past 10 years and has elevated to a point of significant impact on AHA’s budget in an amount exceeding $250,000 per year. The 3% convenience fee will cover the cost of rising credit card fees that is applied by the vendor who processes credit card payments for AHA.
A 3% convenience fee will not be applied to payments made by cash, check or money order for AHA business transactions.
