I'm seeing it more often. They don't say cash discount, they say they're charging a fee for using a credit card.

What annoys me is debit card fees are supposed to be capped in the U.S. But for unclear reasons many payment processors don't honor this, even large processors like PayPal and Square. Merchants tell me the debit card fee is same as a credit card.

My local government charges a 2.9% fee for use of credit or debit card as well.
