>3.5% per transaction in the USA!

Wow that's pretty high, no wonder the number of crypto bros imagining taking on Visa through crypto.

On the bright side, at least they don't add tips. It could have been %3.5 + %20 = %4.2 total.

Given that people usually tip by card, in a way they do (not sure if businesses usually subtract the processing fee from the amount they pay out their workers).
