I'm afraid that most credit card companies prohibit the approach of =
passing along the cost of the handling to the consumer.  If the credit =
card company finds out that you've charged a different (greater) price =
for a card customer compared to a cash customer they can and will =
terminate your right to accept their card.  This happened to a friend of =
my who ran a massage therapy school.  He was selling massage tables and =
a part of his business and giving a discount to cash customers.  Visa =
terminated him (so to speak).

           Pass the three percent along to your clients

    I've gotten a few bigger jobs like refinishing because I take credit =
cards
    which I wouldn't have gotten otherwise.  At first I didn't want to =
do
    tunings on credit cards, but I found it wasn't too bad.  The credit =
card
    company takes 3%, some people think that is too much, but I can live =
with it
    if it keeps my clients happy.  I don't get but a handful of these =
jobs per
    year anyway, but the clients seem to like the option and it gives =
them
    reassurance of credibility.
