It's possible but it's not the same as paying with cash or loan financing.
You'll have less bargaining power and they won't be thrilled about eating the merchant fees.
So merchants are charged a percentage of each transaction? I thought I'd read that but wasn't sure.
Yes, why do you think CostCo does NOT accept credit cards (except for Amex)?
They pass the 2-3% savings onto their members :heart:
Amex doesn't charge the fee?
BTW, I'm soon moving to a city with a CostCo. Any tips?
Amex also charges merchant cc processing fees but they are partnered with CostCo. Previously CostCo was partnered with the ugly bastard step child Discover card.
I was pissed when costco stopped accepting discover..
