What we check on a Lloyds Cardnet arrangement
Lloyds Cardnet (Lloyds Bank Cardnet) provides card acceptance to a wide variety of UK businesses, frequently bundled with Lloyds business banking. Pricing models range from simple bundled rates for small businesses to fully Interchange Plus for larger merchants.
Because rates often reflect the banking relationship at the time of opening, accounts that have been in place for several years may not reflect current market pricing.
