Excuse me, could you please elaborate on what merchant exchange fees are? I'm not entirely familiar with the term and I'm curious to know how it relates to cryptocurrency transactions. Are these fees charged by the exchange platforms when merchants accept cryptocurrency payments? If so, how do they differ from the transaction fees that are typically associated with cryptocurrency transfers? Additionally, are there any ways for merchants to minimize or avoid these fees? Thank you for your time and assistance.

This model typically involves a flat rate fee, which is a fixed amount charged per transaction, regardless of the transaction's size.

Additionally, there is a percentage-based fee, which is calculated as a percentage of the total sales amount, including taxes.

The combination of these two fees can add up quickly for merchants, especially those with high transaction volumes.
