Hmmmm

I’ve never seen a merchant agreement that allows charging more for a customer using a card.

Merchants can offer discounts for cash transactions.

I see what you are saying, you are factoring in the costs you are exposed to for taking cards.

I mean it makes sense.

But if you are not giving your cash customers a discount then isn’t it actually you that’s raising the prices for everyone?
