 Are you talking about a debit card machine or an ATM.  ATMs are 
 associated with banks, debit card machines AFAIK are not. 
  
 The fees charged to the merchant by the Interac machine provider 
 would not appear on your receipt.  If there was a fee on your 
 receipt it is a fee charged to you by the merchant.  That is what 
 the Interac website says the merchant is not permitted to do.
