    [07]_FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    Yes. Cash discount programs are legal in New York State and all 50 states. New York GBL §518 requires merchants to display both the cash price and card price — a properly run cash discount program satisfies this requirement by design. Scaler Pay provides compliant dual-price signage with every terminal package.

    Scaler Technologies, headquartered on Long Island, offers Scaler Pay — a true cash discount program with $0 processing fees for the merchant. Most regional processors still charge per-transaction or percentage-based fees. Scaler Pay eliminates those fees entirely via a disclosed service fee charged to card users at the terminal.

    Most Long Island businesses are live within the same week of approval. You apply, we review and call you within one business day, your terminal ships pre-configured, and you're processing. No on-site visit required. Nassau County and Suffolk County businesses qualify for the same same-week timeline.

    A Long Island restaurant processing $20,000/month saves $560–$768/month ($6,720–$9,216/year) depending on their current processing rate.
