Covers health and beauty spas: day spas, massage establishments and similar treatment venues. Retail beauty products post under MCC 5977 (Cosmetic Stores) instead, and hairdressers/barbers post under MCC 7230. Sessions bought through a booking platform or wallet can post under that intermediary's code.
It is the four-digit code card networks assign to health and beauty shops transactions. Issuers read this code to apply bonus rewards.
See the ranking above — it shows each card’s rate on this code and whether the bonus is verified.
The transaction posts under the MCC the acquirer registered, which can differ from what you expect (marketplaces, wallets and booking intermediaries often re-code). Verify the code before large purchases.
