Sam MacKinnon: Hospitality NZ Head of Advocacy on the Government banning added fees on in-store card payments - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

There are fears that retailers will wear the cost of scrapping payment surcharges.  

The Government will ban the added fees for most in-store card payments, including paywave.  

Hospitality NZ Head of Advocacy Sam MacKinnon says ultimately customers were always allowed to avoid the surcharges by paying in a less convenient way.  

He told Mike Hosking more work needs to be done on the issue.  

McKinnon says it's actually about the fees banks charge to accept payment.
