TECHi's Take
Different payment processors have different opinions on the definition of a microtransaction, commonly known as a miniscule payment for a good or service.
Small businesses in the US like to require that customers make at least a $10 transaction on a credit or debit card. That’s because some processors charge more for smaller transactions in order to make money on every purchase.
