TDLR - Credit Card Ruling in writing

TDLR Logo TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING & REGULATION

Effective immediately licensees in the TOW/VSF program may charge consumers a credit card surcharge for those paying TOW/VSF costs with a credit card. This surcharge, also known as a credit card swipe fee, may not exceed the amount or percentage charged by a credit card issuer to use the card. The Department will provide additional guidance on this issue at a later date.
