Post it at the entrance, at the register and on your ordering page; restaurants put it on the menu too. A surcharge also goes on its own receipt line, in dollars. A plain example, not legal advice; some states require their own wording.
What should a cash discount sign say?
That posted prices are card prices and cash customers pay less, for example: "Our prices are card prices. Pay cash and get 3% off." Post it at the entrance, the register and your ordering page. Truvana Tech sets up cash and card prices on its point-of-sale systems, in English or Spanish.
Where do I have to post a surcharge sign?
At the entrance, at the register and online, and restaurants put it on the menu. The surcharge also goes on its own receipt line in dollars, never above 3% or your cost, and never on debit cards.
