Credit cards companies have a merchant fee, ussually around 2%.

It was illegal for vendors to charge a fee for card purchases, so if that was the case then they maybe just raised their prices.

Iirc, surcharging is only illegal in 4 states. However, theres a loop hole in thise states, giving a discount on cash purchases arent considered a surcharge...
