I’ve noticed a few online merchants who are adding their credit card fees to the purchase price, which makes sense. But often there’s no alternative payment method. A brick and mortar store could add a credit card fee and have a cash price, but that doesn’t work on line. As a consumer and speaking just for myself, I’d appreciate it if the merchant didn’t average the credit card fees over all purchase types, but (for example) said something like cash/btc might be $100, but credit card price like is $103. I agree with the incentives and desire for adoption, but I also know that if the price for cash/btc are the same to me as credit, and my card gives me 1-2% back, and is more convenient at check out, that’s an incentive too. I know it’s not a lot, but it adds up over time.
