Visa and Mastercard agreed to limit fees they charge merchants who accept their credit and debit cards.
Settlement announced in March was intended to resolve most litigation that began in 2005 over so-called swipe fees.
Many merchants and retail trade groups viewed the fees, typically 1.5% to 3.5% , as excessive.
Critics say the fees lead to higher prices for consumers.
