CC merchant contracts used to forbid this, IIRC.
- smackfu 12y agoTrue, yet paying your taxes by credit card has always had fees, for the last decade or two. The government really has zero incentive to accept credit cards and eat the fees, so I'm guessing the credit card companies allowed it in this case.
- sokoloff 12y agoEffective January 27, 2013, this was no longer against the merchant agreements with Visa and Mastercard (it was previously). Whether there is a state law forbidding the practice (or more likely, requiring specific language to advertise the 'cash discount price') is likely to vary by jurisdiction.
