    The small restaurant I work in racked up at 16k in credit card fees in months. We’ve had to start applying the 3% fee to credit card sales.

      Or just raise your prices instead of hitting customers with surprise fees. I own a small business. The vast majority of our revenue is from credit cards. We don’t pass those fees into customers, we just raise our prices as needed.

        Say that really fucking slowly. Like maybe three or four times until it clicks.

        Also, raising prices passes this cost onto ALL customers. Having a credit card fee only charges those that want to use a credit card.

        So really your solution is shittier.
