This document describes tools capable of determining ways in which to
alter interchange categories assigned to credit-card transactions and the
accompanying potential fee savings. In some embodiments, the tools
receive parameters for interchange categories and transaction information
for merchants that have been charged interchange fees based on some of
these categories. The tools may determine, based on these parameters and
transaction information, parameter changes that enable similar
credit-card transactions to be assigned a lower-cost interchange category
and the accompanying potential fee savings.
