Around me, I’ve seen a huge up swing in companies either offering cash discount or credit card surcharge, typically 3-5%.
While frustrating, I actually appreciate this effort to preserve a non digital option. If only for privacy and tracking benefits.
That’s about what it costs them to run the transaction. Realistically, everyone is charging you that; most places just hide it in higher prices.
No argument, the cash discount framing is more honest.
I haven’t noticed this in my area.
