How can I implement a Cash Discount / Surcharging Program for my business?

Implement a cash discount or surcharging program

Implementing a Cash Discount / Surcharging Program for your business is easy.

Cash discount and surcharging programs can vary from company to company, but at their core, both options offer business owners a way to instantly increase their bottom line to see additional profits right away. 

The best way to get started is to schedule a free consultation to tell us about your business. We can offer you a cash discount program (or surcharging program) tailored for your business.

The future of merchant services 

Cash Discount programs are modernizing merchant accounts and payment processing. Recently, businesses nationwide are now embracing this program. Gas stations have been using a cash discount program far longer than many other businesses – many gas stations display a credit card and cash price.  

Frequently Asked Questions 

Here are common questions from customers regarding a cash discount or surcharging program.

My customers mainly pay with a credit card, so can I still accept credit cards?

You still can! Nothing changes with how you accept payments – just how much you pay to get paid! Cash discount and surcharging programs allow you to easily accept credit card or cash payments like you usually would with any other merchant services program. 

Do I have to adjust prices and discounts manually?

Absolutely not. These programs are designed to help you quickly accept payments from customers. Once your initial account setup is complete, your POS system will automatically adjust prices and add discounts upon checkout. 

I heard about the cash discount program before. Someone told me this program is illegal. Is that true? 

Cash discount programs are completely legal in all 50 states. The Durbin Amendment legally allows businesses to reward customers for making cash payments. 

How does a Cash Discount Program actually work? 

Cash discount and surcharging programs work by utilizing a custom POS system that automatically collects credit card processing fees on your behalf, but doesn’t charge you for them. The collected processing fees are then paid to the credit card companies that impose mandatory fees—leaving you with zero credit card processing fees.

Here’s an example of a receipt from a customer at a coffee shop with and without a cash discount program.

Finally, modern merchant services! 

A cash discount program is a method of accepting credit card payments where the customer assumes all credit card processing charges. The business owner is able to keep 100% of the profits from each sale, which in most cases amounts to an instant 3-4% increase in profit.

How does a cash discount program work? 

Cash discount programs combine tailored software and hardware that automatically charges the customer all processing fees at the time of purchase, leaving the business owner with 100% of the profits from each transaction.  

This entire process is automated, and the business owner or manager simply continues to accept payments like usual. There is no need to go through specialized training or timely setup processes.  

At CardConnect Goldcoast, our merchant experts set up your account and are available 24/7 to ensure your account is always running properly to take advantage of our $0 credit card processing fee plans.  

Grow your business instantly with a cash discount program. 

The days when business owners have to accept high credit card processing fees are over. An amazing benefit businesses see instantly by deploying a cash discount or surcharging program is their bottom line is immediately increased by an average of 3%.  

Offer customers a discount for paying in cash 

Customers who pay with cash can benefit by automatically getting a discount during checkout. The discount is the removal of all processing fees. Credit card companies like Visa, Mastercard, and American Express (among others) charge mandatory processing fees that cannot be avoided. Someone always pays them. By paying in cash, those fees are avoided, and the customer doesn’t pay the processing fees, which grants them an automatic discount of at least ~3%.  

Common Benefits and Features:

  • Discounts or processing fees are automatically applied based on the payment method
  • Online reporting that’s easy to access 
  • Instantly increase your bottom line to see more profits immediately 
  • Safe and secure ecosystem with seamless system updates 
  • Behind the scenes deposit of funds based on cash payments you receive 

Go from expensive processing fees to $0 per month.
