Pricing FAQ

What does it cost to use Mercury?
Mercury is free to use, however, certain advanced features may incur fees. These include: making mass payments on our API, accessing Mercury Treasury account management, exchanging money in non-USD currencies, and sending USD internationally with optional premium processing. There are no account minimums, overdraft fees, monthly fees, or account opening fees.
Is wiring USD internationally really free?
Yes, as a Mercury customer, USD international wires are always free for you to send. We offer two options for how those wires are processed. The first, coded as SHA, is standard among most banks and while free to you, may result in intermediary bank fees that are absorbed by your recipient. The second, coded as OUR, gives you the option to pay a flat fee of $15 so that any intermediary fees will be charged back to Mercury, making it more likely your recipient will receive the full amount.
How does Mercury make money?
Our primary revenue stream comes from interest earned on deposits.Additionally, when you use your debit card or IO credit card, Visa and Mastercard charge a fee to the merchants — we receive a percentage of this fee, known as interchange. We also earn money on foreign exchange processing on international wires, as well as fees paid on Mercury Treasury* and Mercury Venture Debt.
What are "celebrations"?
We’re glad you asked. Whether it’s raising a round, launching a cool feature, going public, or hitting a milestone, we follow along with your wins and send you gifts throughout the year. Make sure you keep an eye out for Mercury emails.
How do you price currency exchange?
There is a conversion fee (1% on the USD amount). This helps us cover the cost associated with sending money internationally through the SWIFT network. If your company is exchanging >$200K, reach out to us to chat fees.
Is there a minimum balance requirement for Mercury Treasury?
Mercury Treasury is currently available to users with account balances over $500K. We hope to open Treasury to all users in the future.
