Haha, that's funny. The merchant's whole income is from the customer, there's no way not to pass it on to the customer, just to conceal better the fact that they're passing it on.
- notatoad 12y agoobviously they pass the cost on to the customer, but not directly. they can't charge one price for cash and a different price for card.
- innguest 12y agoWhich means they have to pass the cost on to both kinds of customer.
- waps 12y agoIf you're a business customer in a bank, and you bring in cash on a regular basis, the bank will actually charge you a percentage for doing that. From a discussion I had with a merchant, that rate is quite high, especially for small change. The value he gave for small change was 7%. That's a lot more expensive than the worst credit card charges, except for really small amounts.
- roncohen 12y agoMost merchants are OK with the Dankort. Handling cash (in a near cashless society, mind you) is not free either. Bottom line is: if i can't pay with my Dankort, I'll go somewhere else.
