A comment on Cash payments above €3000 to be outlawed in Netherlands. Parent comment
I can see a merchant not wanting to pay the credit card transaction fee if the purchase is so low as to make the sale a wash or worse.
I just wonder if the $10 limit is throwing the dog a bone and small merchants really want/need a higher minimum to protect their margins.
Seems like not allowing merchants to decide how they accept payments is an overreach by the government.
