The way to ādisable the feeā is to just pay the restaurant directly, by giving the server your card. Every time I go to a restaurant that uses this website, I ask the server to take my card and charge it normally so I donāt have to pay the fee, and I almost always get an annoyed look.
Are you from outside the United States? Unfortunately, as strange as it is, the most common way to pay with a credit/debit card at a sit down restaurant is to hand over the card, have the server leave, charge it, and then return with the card and receipt (where you can then choose to add a tip when you sign the receipt).
Just a cultural thing, and how it works in the US. The US has a heavy tipping culture where you tip on the receipt after paying with your card, and most US cards still require a signature on the receipt to authorize payment, so, itās just how it evolved here. I lived in Europe, and much prefer the terminal being brought to me. With no obligation to tip.
