Merchant category codes (MCCs) that range from 4000 to 4799 are reserved for transportation services.
Merchants under this category include tours companies that manage trip logistics, intercity bus lines, passenger cruise lines, and passenger railways. Bridge and toll roads, marinas, and ambulance services that offer emergency transportation can also be found in the transportation services category.
Examples of specific MCCs in this range include:
MCC | Description |
4011 | Railroad |
4121 | Taxicabs & Limousines |
4582 | Airports, Flying Fields, & Airport Terminals |
4722 | Travel Agencies |
The risk posed to merchants in these MCCs by chargebacks and fraud varies widely. Online travel agencies (OTAs), for example, are highly susceptible to disputes because they are conducting advanced bookings. Road tolls, however, tend to see fewer disputes.
