Key points to remember about surcharging:

Requires 30 days notice to card brands
Credit transactions only; cannot charge debit cards
Surcharge must not exceed 3%, effective April 2023
Surcharge % must not exceed cost of acceptance
Proper signage and notification required
But that's not all! Talk to us and learn how to be 100% compliant.
If (1) your business is not 100% compliant and/or (2) your cost of acceptance is higher than 3%, and you'd like to eliminate all your processing fees, a cash discount or dual price program may be a better fit for your business. Book your free consultation to find out now.

If your business is imposing a surcharge, and you have not followed all the requirements by the card brands and states, then your business is NOT compliant and subject to penalties
Proper signage like this is required, yet most merchants are very dubious about their communication to customers, and are there NOT compliant and subject to penalties
