Merchant Category Code
 

If a merchant has two MCC, is there a way for them to select which MCC they want to use before swiping the card?

I currently live in an apartment that also runs a hotel. I paid my rent last month, and the transaction used the personal service category instead of the hotel category. I asked the office and no one knows what I'm talking about... I'm hoping someone in flyer talk who has experience with this can give me information about how this process work. Thanks.
