Home→Merchant Dual Pricing Program
Two clear prices. One smarter way to manage payment costs.
Display cash and card prices side by side throughout checkout. Customers choose how they want to pay, receipts stay transparent, and your business gains a more predictable way to manage card acceptance costs.
Cash and card prices displayed upfront
Customer choice at checkout
Guided setup and ongoing support
Give customers a choice without surprising them at checkout.
Dual pricing presents a cash price and a card price before the customer pays. Q Solutions helps you connect the pricing, technology, disclosures, and staff workflow into one consistent experience.
Clear before payment
Customers can see their options before selecting a payment method.
Consistent through checkout
Configured prices carry through the payment screen and receipt.
Supported after launch
Your team has a knowledgeable partner for setup, questions, and ongoing service.
From displayed price to completed payment in three clear steps.
STEP 01
Show both prices
Cash and card prices are presented using compatible menus, inventory tools, signage, invoices, or payment screens.
STEP 02
Let the customer choose
The customer selects cash or card based on the two prices shown—before the transaction is completed.
STEP 03
Complete a transparent checkout
The selected payment amount is processed and reflected on the receipt using the configured workflow.
Manage card acceptance costs while keeping the customer experience clear.
Better cost visibility
Build payment acceptance into your pricing strategy instead of treating it as an unpredictable month-end expense.
Customer choice
Customers decide whether the cash price or card price works best for them.
Clearer checkout
Upfront price presentation helps avoid frustration from an unexpected last-second adjustment.
Modern technology
Accept chip, contactless, and supported wallet payments on compatible equipment.
Consistent receipts
Provide a record that reflects the payment method and configured transaction price.
Guided implementation
Get help with equipment, configuration, disclosures, staff training, and launch planning.
Dual pricing is a pricing model—not simply a fee added at the end.
Each approach has a different customer experience and different operational requirements. We help you understand the available options before you choose.
Upfront choice
Dual pricing
Cash and card prices are displayed in advance. The customer chooses a payment method and pays the corresponding displayed price.
Separate requirements
Credit card surcharge
An additional amount is applied to an eligible credit card transaction and is subject to separate disclosure, network, acquirer, and jurisdictional requirements.
Merchant-paid cost
Traditional processing
One price is displayed for all payment methods and the business pays its processing costs separately.
The technology matters. The implementation matters just as much.
A successful program depends on more than turning on a terminal setting. Q Solutions helps coordinate the customer experience from displayed pricing through receipt.
