Why This Is Urgent

The rapidly evolving landscape of pricing disclosure laws and regulations, both at the state and federal level, directly impacts the already complex world of surcharge and convenience fee practices. These new laws, which will go into effect in April 2025, aim to increase pricing transparency, forcing businesses to navigate a new regulatory environment while consumers gain enhanced rights regarding pricing disclosures (particularly for all "mandatory" charges).

Who Should Attend

This critical briefing is for professionals across the payments ecosystem including risk and compliance officers, legal teams, sales and business development executives, pricing strategists, fintech leaders designing embedded payment products, payment processors, and merchant acquirers utilizing convenience fees and surcharges.

What You Will Gain

  • The new FTC Final Trade Regulation Rule on Unfair or Deceptive Fees
  • State pricing disclosure laws from California, New York, and Minnesota
  • How these pricing disclosure laws transform established surcharging and convenience fee practices
  • Strategies to mitigate regulatory and class action risks
