Government should initiate the action for the following two issues:
1. All Government / Semi-government department to accept the money through credit card without any transaction / convenience charges. Example: IRCTC. Credit card is charged with the transaction charges on booking of ticket through IRCTC because IRCTC (merchant) does not pay the same to the bank. (2) Private Merchant should not charge the 'Convenience Charges'. In fact the cost of the transaction through website is much less than the cost when you transact on counter. It should be mandatory for NOT CHARGING Convenience charges. Merchant must bear the cost rather than transferring to the buyer. more
