Podcasts about surcharges

Today we'll be talking about tightening rules on cannabis regulation in Phuket, rush hour taxi surcharges set to be implemented in December, and of course foreigners behaving badly in drunken, whacky fashion.

In July the Government announced a ban on surcharges on credit card payments in-store from May 2026 at the latest. ACT is attempting to block this ban by allowing credit card surcharges, as long as other payment options are offered- such as cash or eftpos. They suggest the ban will either increase prices for customers or unfairly punish businesses. ACT Commerce and Consumer Affairs spokesperson Dr Parmjeet Parmar said to Heather du Plessis-Allan that ACT's proposal was creating with 'cost and choice' in mind.

In South Africa it is illegal for stores to add a surcharge for payments made by bank cards, as this is in contravention of the Consumer Protection Act.

3 -Banks cry foul over surcharge shake-up by Australian Citizens Party

In this episode of Bean There Done That, host Phil Di Bella sits down with Larry Prosser, Executive Director of Beyond Payments, to unpack the Reserve Bank of Australia's proposed ban on card surcharges. They break down what this policy really means for consumers, merchants, and banks—and why the supposed “savings” for customers might actually backfire. Larry explains how surcharges evolved, why compliance matters, and the hidden costs bundled into merchant fees. Phil pushes the conversation into real-world territory: shrinking café margins, the politics behind RBA decisions, and the practical steps small businesses must take now. It's an eye-opening look into the payments industry, packed with insights every business owner and everyday consumer needs to hear. Key Topics and Themes The history of surcharging and RBA policy shifts Why banning surcharges may increase prices instead of lowering them The impact of shrinking café and hospitality profit margins How banks and POS providers bundle hidden fees into merchant services The ethical approach Beyond Payments takes with transparency and compliance The bigger picture: industry bodies, political motives, and small business survival About Our Guest Larry Prosser is the Executive Director of Beyond Payments, Australia's first fully compliant “fee-less” EFTPOS provider. Since 2013, Beyond Payments has helped thousands of merchants recover 100% of their merchant service fees through transparent and compliant surcharge mechanisms. Larry is a passionate advocate for small business, pushing for fairness, compliance, and practical solutions in the payments space. More at: beyondpayments.com.au Key Takeaways The RBA's proposed ban on surcharges may sound good for consumers but will likely push prices up across cafés and restaurants. Merchant fees are not “free”—bundled POS solutions often hide costs in other ways. Debit card fees remain one of the most unfair charges facing consumers today. Transparency, compliance, and constant vigilance are essential for small businesses when choosing merchant service providers. Small business survival depends on understanding merchant fees and demanding fairness from banks and fintechs.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEver been blindsided by a strange charge on your restaurant bill? Imagine finishing a peaceful meal only to discover a 20% "quiet time surcharge" tacked on simply because you dined during off-peak hours. According to one customer's account, a restaurant justified this fee by comparing it to "flying private instead of commercial" – as if enjoying a less crowded dining room somehow warranted an extra cost!The hospitality industry seems to be finding increasingly creative ways to test customer boundaries. Beyond questionable restaurant charges, disturbing research from Germany suggests our favorite sodas might be doing more than expanding our waistlines – they could be contributing to depression. Scientists have discovered a link between soft drink consumption and increased levels of gut bacteria associated with depressive disorders, with women apparently facing higher risks than men. This adds another concerning dimension to the already well-documented health issues related to sugary beverages.Perhaps most troubling is the story of a family with a three-year-old child who were allegedly denied their Marriott hotel reservation in Las Vegas because the father didn't have his physical credit card present – despite the chain's heavily marketed digital check-in service. The family claims they were forced to spend the night in their car in the scorching Vegas heat, raising serious questions about corporate policies versus compassionate customer service. When confronted, the hotel management apparently doubled down on their position, prioritizing procedure over a family's wellbeing. What would you do if faced with these situations? Would you pay that unexpected surcharge, or would you stand your ground? These stories highlight the often frustrating disconnect between what businesses advertise and what customers actually experience. Share your thoughts or similar experiences – we'd love to hear how you navigate these hospitality industry challenges!Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

The Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister is not sharing the same fears as retailers over the surcharge ban. Scott Simpson says the legislation banning surcharges like PayWave is before the Select Committee and will be in place by next year. 36 business associations have written a letter warning the ban could be passed on through increased prices. Simpson says a lot of businesses don't use surcharges - so won't be impacted or need to raise prices. "The ones that choose to add that pricing in will be actually competitively constrained in the marketplace by those businesses that choose not to do so."

By next May surcharges on purchases made with debit and credit cards or digital wallets will be banned. 

The government has announced it intends to ban surcharges at the till. Whether it'll actually lead to lower prices though is unclear, the retail sector has warned businesses may have to pass on those costs somehow. But the government has warned businesses not to, citing a big reduction in the fees they pay to accept Visa and Mastercard payments. Giles Dexter reports.

Tapping or swiping your bank cards is about to get cheaper for shoppers, as the government announced it is set to ban surchages for paywave by 2026. The Commerce Commission estimates Kiwis pay about $150 million in card surcharges each year, including up to $65 million in excessive charges. Commerce & Consumer Affairs Minister, Scott Simpson spoke to Lisa Owen.

Surcharges - the fees we pay when we use PayWave or a credit card - have been labelled our "national embarrassment" by Consumer NZ and now the government is going to stop retailers from passing on the costs to consumers. Consumer NZ chief executive Jon Duffy spoke to Corin Dann.

The government is moving to ban surcharges on PayWave but it's only for Visa and Mastercard and doesn't include online purchases. Retail New Zealand chief executive Carolyn Young spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Many businesses are up in arms about the government's decision to ban surcharges on PayWave and Visa and Mastercard credit card transactions by May next year. Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister Scott Simpson spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Retailers say the government's move to ban surcharges on PayWave and credit card purchases by next May will only drive their prices up because they can't afford to absorb the costs. Karori bookshop owner Briony Hogg, Wellington hair stylist Matt Forsman and Devonport cafe owner Brendan Kyle spoke to Corin Dann.

The Commerce Minister says he's disappointed in businesses who say they will pass on the cost of surcharge scrapping. Most in-store surcharges on card payments will be banned, with the changes set to kick in next May. Scott Simpson says this is a win for consumers. He told Mike Hosking they've also taken action on the fees banks charge businesses. Simpson says those rates will be lower following regulation that will kick in at the end of the year. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are fears that retailers will wear the cost of scrapping payment surcharges. The Government will ban the added fees for most in-store card payments, including paywave. Hospitality NZ Head of Advocacy Sam MacKinnon says ultimately customers were always allowed to avoid the surcharges by paying in a less convenient way. He told Mike Hosking more work needs to be done on the issue. McKinnon says it's actually about the fees banks charge to accept payment.
