Merchants hate interchange but will pay 7-9pct for marketing

Merchants hate paying 2% for credit card interchange, yet reports show that they are willing to pay 7-9% to companies like Google that envelop the payment transaction within the shopping context and actually deliver sales. A recent study by Deloitte looks at online purchases only, but I am excited about how the same ideas can be applied to real-world purchases.
