This used to be a thing, before it was removed. At the time of its removal (late 2020), there was a mention of a possible future means of adding an automated surcharge or discount based on payment type. Has there been any further discussion of this subject?

In the future, will there be an automated fee based on guest selection?
There is a new method we have discussed building that will add a processing fee on to the booking based on the credit card payment made at the time the credit card is run. This method should be much more intuitive on all sides because it simply increments the payment at the time it's run and the guest understands that there's a fee added on. On the booking charges, a special Processing Fee will show below the taxes. To be clear, this has only been discussed, not developed or scheduled for engineering. We have no ETA on that yet, but we may release it in the future.
Any new thoughts on credit card surcharges? Nowadays it is almost becoming the norm to see the surcharge. Wondering if more people might be interested in this feature now?

Hey Tim,
Sorry we never got back to you here. We had a similar request come in that I've merged into yours, and that brought my attention to your questions.
While we would like to do this, there are a number of "gotchas" that have to be thought through first. From a UX standpoint alone, there's a lot to consider.
With the workload our current roadmap presents us with in 2025, I don't see us being able to work this in quite yet. I'm afraid that though we would like to add this in the future, it's just not in the cards right now.
This request will remain open to garner more votes, so feel free to share it with likeminded users who would be willing to give it an upvote!
