Elmhurst Merchants Are Eliminating Processing Fees. Here's the Program.
Broadway and Queens Boulevard run through one of New York's busiest and most diverse commercial corridors. Restaurants, grocery stores, nail salons, and specialty retailers here process hundreds of card transactions a day — and pay 2.5–3.5% on every one. Scaler Pay's cash discount program eliminates that fee entirely. We deliver the compliant terminal, the required signage, and full program support. Payment processing services provided through licensed processing partners.
An Elmhurst restaurant processing $55,000/month at 2.75% is paying $18,150/year to card networks. With Scaler Pay's cash discount program, that number becomes $0.
Estimates based on 2.75% average processing rate. Actual fees vary by card mix and processor. Payment processing services provided through licensed processing partners.
An Elmhurst business doing $40,000/month in card volume is paying $12,000–$16,800 a year in fees that cash discount eliminates.
- 01Broadway and Queens Blvd anchor one of Queens' highest-density commercial corridors — Chinese, Korean, and Latin restaurants, Asian grocery stores, bubble tea shops, nail salons, and specialty retail. Every business in that mix pays percentage-based fees on every card transaction.
- 02A restaurant doing $55,000/month in card sales at 2.75% pays $1,512/month — $18,150/year — before a single cent goes toward food cost, labor, or rent.
- 03Elmhurst's retail margins are already compressed by competition and high commercial rents. A cash discount program removes a cost that most businesses assume is fixed and unavoidable.
- 04New York State GBL §518 fully permits cash discount programs. Customers are informed at the door and at the register. The program is legal, transparent, and increasingly familiar to Queens shoppers.
- 05Businesses that eliminate processing fees gain a structural margin advantage over nearby competitors still absorbing the same cost.
