Swift publishes no bank (ACH) rate.
Swift lets the club add its own custom fee at checkout; it is not worked out from the processing rate, so processing stays with the club here.

Switching Questions

How hard is it to switch?We import your players, families, staff and teams, bring your current season over, and connect your Stripe account. Most clubs are live within two weeks.
Can families pay processing fees?Yes. Each club chooses whether families pay the processing fee at checkout or the club absorbs it. Card-brand and state rules can limit surcharges.
Do I have to leave GotSport?No. If your state association requires it, keep it for player passes and upload your roster there. Run tryouts, payments and everything else in Game Mode.
