Card surcharging changes

Thursday, 1 October 2026

Businesses can no longer add a card surcharge to card payments in line with the RBA card surcharging reforms. CommBank is progressively updating EFTPOS terminals from 1 October. If you haven’t switched off surcharging, you'll need your manager passcode to access your surcharge settings and disable surcharging as per instructions found here.

If you use a Point of Sale (POS) system, you may also need to switch-off surcharging in your POS settings.
