The Merchant Category Code (MCC) 3000 is specifically designated for airlines. This four-digit code categorizes businesses that provide air travel services, including airlines, flight booking agencies, and related aviation services. The MCC 3000 is used by major payment card organizations like Visa and Mastercard to determine interchange fees, assess risk, and categorize transactions for tax reporting purposes. It also plays a crucial role in credit card reward programs, where cardholders can earn specific rewards for spending on airline-related transactions.
