Doing business in Sparks
Sparks sits just east of Reno in Washoe County. Its business mix includes restaurants and events around Victorian Square, shopping and dining at The Legends at Sparks Marina, and a large base of warehousing, logistics and industrial companies along the I-80 corridor, which continues east toward the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center in neighboring Storey County.
Logistics and industrial suppliers often take invoice, phone and business-card payments with large tickets, while retail and restaurants run high-volume in-person sales. Those two profiles price very differently, which is why CMS Card Services builds the comparison from your own statement.
Sparks merchants get the same programs and review process as the rest of Nevada, by phone at (725) 261-7060 or online.

Three programs for Sparks merchants
The percentages differ on purpose so the programs are never the same offer with a new label.
Option 2
Surcharge
Surcharge can help B2B and large-ticket sellers offset credit cost. The CMS Surcharge is 3% on credit cards only, never debit or prepaid. In Nevada it must be clearly disclosed (posted at the entrance and point of sale and shown on the receipt) and stay within card-brand rules and Nevada law.
