This also really annoys me. Sometimes that fee is up to 4%, and I've seen corner stores that literally only disclosed it on a tiny sticker at the front door – not near or on the POS, not on the receipt (which you usually don't get by default).

I think at one point I've even seen 4% cash discount and 4% card surcharge in the same place. And I doubt that even the most expensive payment service provider out there charges the merchant anything close to 4% for card processing.

Yeah, I understand cc minimums (usually $5, but sometimes $10), but the hidden fees bug me.
