Overview
This bill prohibits businesses from charging extra fees when customers pay with a debit card or gift card. Previously, businesses could charge surcharges for credit card transactions but were required to disclose this policy. The bill now explicitly prohibits surcharges for debit card and gift card payments, and clarifies definitions related to these payment methods. Violations can result in significant penalties, including fines and cease-and-desist orders.
