I think this is a bit backwards myself. Credit card auto pay has a higher percentage chance of being on time than checks. We encourage our customers to charge a check processing fee or at least give a discount to auto payers. I know we spent a lot more time tracking down checks and had very few come in on time than the small fee you pay for credit cards. How much does it cost you in labor to track down deadbeat check payers? For us, the convenience was worth more than the charge.

    I'm pretty sure you're allowed to charge for it now.

        Don't charge your customers for using a credit card or they
        will pull your merchant agreement. For good reason. I hate
        companies that do this.

            Darin,

            Not a lawyer, but be careful - I'm pretty sure it's
            against most of the CC issuer policies to do this.

            Hey all,

            If some of you with Powercode would be interested in this
            feature, can you please vote for it on the feature
            request link below?

            Basically, this feature would automatically apply a fixed
            or percentage based fee to the bill for all credit or
            debit card payments. It would also warn the customer of
            this charge before they setup auto pay or submit manual
            payment. We would continue to allow ACH or eCheck
            withdrawal for free but charge for customers to use
            credit/debit payment method as those costs are 2-4% of
            the total customer bill, which we don't want to eat the
            cost of.

            Please vote for this feature if you think you might be
            even a little interested in this so it is available when
            you are.

            Thank you
