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.
Let me say this very slowly so you can comprehend.
Price on menu: $10.
Price at checkout because CC fees passed on to me: $10.30
That's a surprise fee.
Price on menu where the price was raised to account for CC fees: $10.30
Price at checkout: $10.30
No surprise fee.
As someone who really fucking hates surprise fees, thank you.
