## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 13 of the 43 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 30 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 5 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 293 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: the TOTAL published monthly cost per vendor per segment, not the advertised headline: base plan + the price of a second and third terminal + the published card-processing rate applied to a stated monthly card volume + hardware amortised over the contract term the vendor itself states; from that, the cheapest publishing vendor per segment and per country, the share of vendors publishing any price at all versus quote-only, and the gap between the advertised 'from' price and the three-terminal price - which is the figure the whole 'cheapest' query is really asking for and which no vendor and no affiliate listicle computes. Repriced-since on every read.
