Cash Discount Pricing

Eliminate up to 100% of processing fees.

Cash Discount pricing lets you offer a discount to customers who pay with cash while adding a small service fee for card payments. This legally compliant program can eliminate your credit card processing costs entirely.

How It Works

Your posted prices include the card service fee. When a customer pays with cash or debit, they receive an automatic discount at the point of sale. Our compliant terminals and signage handle everything — the discount is calculated and displayed automatically, requiring no manual work from your staff.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is cash discount pricing legal?

Yes. Cash discount programs are legal in all 50 states when implemented correctly. Xpress ensures your program complies with all card network rules and state regulations.

How is this different from a surcharge?

A surcharge adds a fee on top of the listed price for card users. A cash discount sets the listed price to include the service fee, then discounts it for cash payers. The distinction matters for compliance.

What signage is required?

We provide all required signage, including door decals and register notices, that clearly inform customers about the cash discount. Our terminals also print compliant receipts automatically.
