LTF Swiping Machine with ZERO MDR

There's a hardware shop in my city that has a current account with Canara Bank. The bank provided them with an mSwipe swiping machine at no cost. They paid nothing for the machine, no deposit, initial amount, rental, or installation charges.

They also have zero MDR for credit card payments. How it's possible? if the MDR is zero, who is covering the cost of our rewards?

Why is the bank offering these machines to large merchants instead of small ones? Large merchants typically don't worry about rentals, MDR, or device installation fees, yet they receive these benefits for free.

Zero installation and rental is understandable but zero MDR?

@Abhishek012 How is it possible?

Credit Regular: 0% 🤡

Whereas Debit Card: 0.40% 🫤

Amex: 3% 💀
 
I think this is some introductory/promotional offer of some kind. The reason it's not possible is because it's unsustainable and a total loss, credit card payments doesn't only have to cover for rewards, there is network's cut, banks have to put away money for credit default risk as a regulatory requirement, there is compliance cost involved, etc etc. There is no way this is LTF MDR. Machine could be LTF on a promotional basis for few lucky customers.

And they have MDR on debit card, may be the bank has done some market research and knows that 90% traffic would come on debit card. But again there is no way this is permanent.

The Banks usually will offer zero in the beginning to push up sales but later they might charge.

Yes, you may be right, but the machine has been working for more than a year now.
