Under a board decision dated 15 September, maximum fees for AZIPS and the Low Value Payments Clearing and Settlement System will be cut by factors of two and 1.5, respectively, while fees per settlement session will be harmonised across systems. The new model sets fixed charges by transaction-value brackets regardless of time of day. Fees for the 24/7 Instant Payments System will be lower than those for other systems, and the Interbank Card Centre will receive tariffs for processing card-to-card transfers. The new fees take effect on 1 April 2027. ## Data ### Revised payment-system fees Service-fee schedule approved by the central bank and taking effect in April 2027.
