I have asked this question many, many times and never received a direct answer. It is therefore my opinion that CCBill evaluates all the "possible" fees associated with providing what they do and decided $750 per account, per year, on average, would be suitable.

That's my opinion but as far as I am concerned or aware of, VISA does not charge a merchant a yearly flat VISA fee. Billers call it a VISA fee because indirectly and directly... it could be. Also, VISA representitives are not reviewing each site for VISA compliance... CCBill representatives are.
thank you sir.
