What SEPA costs
Merchants do not pay SEPA directly. Each payment provider that offers it sets its own rate, so compare a few and ask them to quote.

What the last check found
Nuvei's integration data records this as an acceptance method rather than a payout rail: it takes payments and supports refunds, but money cannot be sent out through it. The distinction matters because a "supported payment methods" list treats paying in and paying out as the same thing, and for most local rails they are not — of the methods checked in this pass, far more accept money than return it.
Documented by Nuvei across 35 countries: Andorra, Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Estonia and 25 more, in 1 currency (EUR).
