Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 14, 2014, USA Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), and Visa U.S.A. Inc. (the "Network"), entered into a new three-year agreement (the "Agreement") effective on October 31, 2014, and replaced the agreement that had previously been entered into between them.
 
Subject to the terms of the Agreement, the Network has agreed to continue to make available to the Company promotional interchange reimbursement fees for small ticket debit and credit card transactions in the unattended beverage and food vending merchant category code as well as for small ticket regulated debit card transactions in the other unattended vending and/or retail merchant category codes covered by the Agreement. As previously reported, pursuant to regulations that were promulgated pursuant to the so-called Durbin Amendment to the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, the Network had significantly increased its interchange fees for small ticket regulated debit card transactions effective October 1, 2011. The promotional interchange reimbursement fees provided by the Agreement will allow the Company to continue to accept the Network’s debit card products in the merchant category codes covered by the Agreement without adversely impacting the Company or its customers. During the term of the Agreement, the Company does not anticipate accepting any debit and/or credit cards in the merchant category codes covered by the Agreement with interchange reimbursement fees higher than the rates provided under the Agreement.
