It's not special at all permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 1 point 8 months ago (1 child) It costs more for the merchant and cardholder. That's why rich people flex with it. Because they can afford to pay more and cost others more for no reason. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 5 points 8 months ago* (1 child) Maybe more for the seller, I don't know but the cost to me is... Nothing. Well the benefit to me is about 3% back on anything I buy. No fees. Just another cheap card. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago (1 child) The seller isn't eating the loss.

Sorry. You can look up the requirements and benefits, it wouldn't be good for me but for someone who travels a lot and throws big expensive parties it might. Or if they're basically a corporation permalink fedilink source parent
