Here’s the thinking of a federal judge who approved the settlement covering merchants who sued Visa and Mastercard over interchange fees.
A federal judge on Tuesday tentatively approved a settlement between Visa and Mastercard and a class of merchants, paving the way for potential big changes to credit-card rewards.
