Well I disagree totally on VISA and losing sales.

When this whole VISA blackmail started I was running a membership site and opted not to pay it.

I simply upped the VISA price and offered MC at a lower price and all.. WITHOUT EXCEPTION... of my members opted to renew using MC or DISCOVER...
And, it's very very illegal.

Card association rules clearly state you can not charge a higher price or offer a discount rate in that manner. You can not say "use Visa and get a 20% discount!" or anything like that.

It's bullshit, but those are the rules.
