What I discussed
I spoke about the effect of card processing costs on my private chef business, and the pricing decisions involved in meeting those costs. I also described the price changes I was seeing from suppliers.
The Sunrise report includes other business perspectives on the same issue. My contribution comes from my experience of running a business that relies on electronic payments.
