  Is That Restaurant Credit Card Fee Even Legal?

  Aug 13, 202615 minS8

  Are restaurant credit card fees actually legal? Learn why these charges are appearing on your bill and where the money goes. More restaurants are adding extra costs to checks, often labeling them as credit card processing fees. If you have noticed these charges popping up over the last five years, you are not alone. In this episode, we get into why restaurants started charging credit card processing fees instead of just raising menu prices, which states like Connecticut and Massachusetts ban it outright, what Florida actually requires for disclosure, and why we believe this fee is going to change how people use credit cards altogether. #CreditCardFee #ServerLife #RestaurantLife See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
