Wouldn't businesses like this? They get to pass on some of the costs of using credit cards to their customers. Also if a business doesn't want to pass it on they are not required to they just have the option to if they want.

Businesses do and don’t like this. They do because you’re right in that they pass on those costs to consumers. They do not because sometimes that discourages customers to do business. If they go to cash only, that’s definitely going to be a discouragement.
