Our regular customers may have noticed that over the past few months the LCB team have been asking you to insert and manually select your savings account, or pay via cash or direct bank transfer, instead of using credit cards or tap and go.
This is a summary of our cost of acceptance for our current eftpos provider. As you can see, our business pays a significant % fee for the convienience of credit card tap and go payments.
When you add these fees up over the financial year, it is costing us thousands in fees that are going to the banks and merchants, instead of being spent locally and employing local people in our store.
For example, if you buy a new bicycle for $1000 and use tap and go VISA or Mastercard, we pay the merchant a $10.70 fee for the convienience of them handling that transaction. Considering that freight costs have nearly doubled in the past two years, and other costs have also gone up, this fee takes a big bite out of what are increasingly slim margins on our goods which we rely on to stay profitable and provide a service to the community.
Our trial over the past few months has resulted in reducing our average merchant fees by about 20% compared to the previous quarter. This is great for us and we want to continue to give this a go. The alternative, otherwise, is to instead have customers pay the merchant fee at point of sale, which we’ve noticed many other hospitality and retail stores in town implement in the past year. We’d prefer not to do that though.
So remember to please do your bit to help: Don’t let banks and credit card merchants take away money from local organisations and small businesses. Pay with cash or EFTPOS insert where you can. Cash does have fees and risks associated with it too, so or for larger purchases, the best and most secure option is to pay for goods using direct bank transfer.
We’ve seen a huge surge in illegal ebikes being used on public roads and paths. Many of these are done using dangerous and non-compliant conversion kits bought online.
Parents and children need to make sure that they are fully informed as to the legality of these unlicenced motor vehicles to avoid running into trouble.

Yes folks, after months of rumours, Trek has finally announced the epic looking new Fuel EX-e MTB. This is the electric assisted, light-weight trail bike many of us have been waiting on for years.
The new Fuel EX-e looks to be an epic machine ready to take you on some serious MTB adventures around our local trails, while still offering that bit of electric assist to help you get in more laps on your favorite trails.
All-new eMTB is a new breed of mountain bike
While other electric bikes keep chasing more power, higher torque and bigger batteries, the Fuel EXe brings natural-feeling assist with a system that’s so compact and quiet, you might forget it’s there. It’s one of the lightest eMTBs on the market at around 18.14 kg, so it handles more like a regular trail bike, but with a smooth-feeling boost that’s not as intense as a high-power rig like Rail or Powerfly.
Trek has partnered with German robotics manufacturer TQ to develop the Fuel EXe hand-in-hand with their new HPR 50 motor. Their patented harmonic pin ring transmission is smaller, quieter and more dependable than traditional e-bike motors that use gears and belts. Once you experience the serene sound and feel of riding Fuel EXe, e-biking will never be the same…
The Fuel EX-e is jam packed with new technology and features. To be honest, we’re still getting out heads around all the new tech it comes with. Which is great, because we have one arriving in store soon to build, test and ride!
Are you keen to see what the latest in eMTB technology and design provides? Come visit us today to see what all the fuss is about.
