Understanding Merchant Category Code 1711: Air Conditioning, Heating, and Plumbing Contractors

An MCC, or Merchant Category Code, is a four-digit number assigned by payment processors to classify a business according to the type of goods or services it provides.  MCCs are defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and are universally recognised by most card issuers.

Merchant Category Code (MCC) 1711 identifies and categorises transactions for businesses primarily involved in air conditioning, heating, and plumbing sectors. Understanding merchant category codes helps ensure clear, structured payment processing and enhanced financial tracking.

  • Air Conditioning Contractors: Skilled in HVAC installations and maintenance.
