Valid point, I refer to card not present tranx, but are you sure the 0.41% is when via the mc/visa network though (even if we accept an interchange of 0.2x), many of these cards in europe have an alternative national pay network for local cards - you will actually see the choice on some POS screens too. And asia too - TPN dual branded with err can't remember that name of the Chinese pay network that has failed to infect se Asia now, ah unionpay

Yes, AFAIK there is no local payment network in Finland (unless it is completely hidden from users and merchants somehow), and Finnish cards are definitely not co-branded.

The Nets rate for non-Finnish in-EU debit cards is 0.51% and for non-EU debit cards it is 1.71%, and +0.80% for corporate cards (all 2017 rates and for Visa/MC only).
