Credit card networks update their rules often. Most merchants find out they're behind through downgrades, fee spikes, and lost approvals.

Rivet sits on your existing payment stack and handles it automatically — enriching transaction data in real time to stay compliant with the latest network rules (including Visa CEDP, L2/L3, and Product 3), unifying data across every processor into one clean view, and fixing margin and authorization issues before they become expensive.

This is where we share what we're learning: how interchange works, what changes when the networks update their rules, and what payments teams need to know to stay ahead.

If you're running payments ops or working at a processor, you're in the right place!
