Out of interest, where in EU are 5%+ rates a thing?

Here in Finland the base card-present rates of traditional merchant card service providers are around 0.3% for debit and 1% for credit, with no per-transaction fees so these apply to even small transactions.

Hmm, or maybe you were talking about card payments over internet? You might have a point there as per-transaction fees are more common there (e.g. Stripe takes €0.25).

Yes, I was. For example, Stripe's current pricing here in the UK is 20p + 1.4% for European cards (so a transaction of around £5 has a 5% fee) or 20p + 2.9% for non-European cards (so a transaction of around £10 has a 5% fee).

Other online card payment services are broadly similar for small businesses paying the standard advertised rates.
