IT资讯讯 3月18日消息  今天，根据央视财经记者获得的消息，国家发展改革委、中国人民银行今日针对完善银行卡刷卡手续费定价机制发布了通知，通知给出了一系列关于发卡行服务费的降低的优惠措施。

银行卡刷卡手续费主要是收单机构收取的收单服务费、发卡机构收取的发卡行服务费和银行卡清算机构收取的网络服务费。本次改革调整的具体措施包括：

1、降低发卡行服务费费率，借记卡费率不超交易金额0.35%，贷记卡费率不超0.45%；

2、降低网络服务费费率，不超交易金额0.065%，由发卡、收单机构各承担50%（即分别向发卡、收单机构计收的费率均不超过交易金额的0.0325%）；

3、对非营利的医疗、教育、养老、慈善机构，发卡行服务费、网络服务费全免；

4、收单服务费改为市场调节价，收单机构收取的收单服务费由现行政府指导价改为实行市场调节价，由收单机构与商户协商确定具体费率。

相关人士表示，此次刷卡手续费政策调整，主要降低了商户经营成本，不涉及向持卡消费者收费。用户有时在线下会遇到商户不爱用刷卡方式的情况，正是因为商户不愿承担手续费，而有些网店信用卡付款需要加钱也是因为手续费的原因。本次政策实施后，这些情况预计将有所改善，竞争较为充分的收单环节服务费实行市场调节价，有利于发挥市场机制作用。本次政策不禁让人联想到此前微信提现收取手续费的消息，可说是央行为和支付宝微信等第三方支付竞争放出的一个大招。

下一步，国家发展改革委、人民银行还将根据银行卡市场和各行业商户发展需要，继续推进刷卡手续费定价机制市场化改革。
