This is why i put forward my opinion that it is possible MA does take a fee for themself, on top of Credit Card fee.
Like i said, thats more than i pay Mastercard and Visa.

Many establishments just build credit card charges into standard pricing so they dont appear to charge.If they get cash customer is a bonus.
Less scrupulous companies get charged say 1% to 2% and state fee is 3%, some are even know to say is 5%, so many make 3% to 4% for nothing.
Cream.
And yes Amex charges higher but is irrelevant here as MA doesnt use.

Isn't there additional fees when currency is being exchanged? When I charged something in China with my Visa I pay a currency exchange fee. I'm sure this applies to deposits and withdraws in EU as well.
