An Act relative to credit card surcharges

This bill (HD 2622) prohibits businesses from adding extra fees (surcharges) for using credit cards or any payment method. It allows businesses to offer discounts for cash, check, or debit card payments instead, but requires clear notice of these discounts in person, online, or verbally before transactions. The law directly affects retailers and consumers who pay with credit cards. It changes existing rules by banning credit card surcharges while permitting payment method discounts under specific disclosure requirements.
