I'm not sure they do get such a raw deal for accepting card payments do they?
Lots of (for example) food stalls in London were popping up as card-only businesses over the last few years, because it was easier than dealing with cash. The EU rules (which presumably still apply until actually repealed) capped the fees pretty effectively.
Oh sure, yeah no contest there. You want to accept cards here's your list of arcane rules and if you step over the line no money for you. I guess I was thinking in terms of fees etc.
