Rhonda, I totally agree with what you are saying...when I lived in Florida I had Credit card merchant services and it had the same clauses..... but it burns me up that the gas stations charge more and even my Dentist, down in Florida did also...HOWEVER, .the dentist anyway, said they weren't charging a fee for credit card use... they were giving a discount for cash! SO...I guess it is all in how you word it!

Applicable Network Rules. The Networks require that you and Square comply with all applicable bylaws, rules, and regulations (“Network Rules”). The Networks have historically reserved the right to amend their rules and regulations. Square may be required to change this agreement in connection with amendments to the Network Rules. Significant portions of the Network Rules are available to the public at usa.visa.com and www.mastercard.com. Network Rules currently prohibit you from (a) assessing a surcharge for the use of a Card in connection with any transaction, or (b) dispensing cash on any Card transaction. The Rules also restrict your use of Network logos to indicating your acceptance of the Network cards and to other uses expressly authorized by the Networks. https://squareup.com/legal/ua All you have to do is charge the fee to the wrong person and you are opening a big old can of worms for your business.
