Interchange Fee
Interchange fees for MCC 4011 transactions typically range from 1.4% to 3.3%, depending on the card network and transaction volume. Due to the high transaction values often associated with rail services, special rates may be negotiated with payment processors based on risk assessment and contract terms.
Cashback Rewards

Rules and Restrictions
There are no special rules imposed by payment processors specifically for MCC 4011 transactions. Standard rules for card-present and card-absent transactions apply, as determined by card network guidelines.
Tax Reporting
For tax purposes in the United States, payments made under MCC 4011 are typically treated as payments for transportation services.
