What is up with credit card fees? Noticed that some web sites have a credit card fee and others do not. Unless the ones that don't actually work it into their prices.  Why are they charging you for doing business with them? Is it a fee that they pass along that the cc company is charging to them? |
Yep. And most CC companies specifically do not allow that. I'm not sure how you'd go about it, but if you were to somehow contact Visa/MC/AMEX whomever and let them know, the vendor might lose their ability to accept CC as payments. Which would pretty much kill any online business they have. |
Thanks for the response/info.

Why punish the poor small business that is getting burnt by the huge fees? With the last web site I did for a small gun shop, their bank and credit card company made more money in fees and software than the guy actually selling the product and doing the work.z |
