VERBATIM: Businesses in New York will now be required to clearly post how much extra their products will cost if customers pay with a credit car. A new state law means stores can no longer post a sign on a door and at the register stating that credit card purchases will be subject to surcharges. Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement the law “will ensure individuals can trust that their purchases will not result in surprise surcharges.”
