lesson learned.. but what about a surfer who signs up for a paysite subscription and pays with a Credit card?? This issue is not just EP specific.. other similar payment systems (like ibill's gKard) are in the same boat..
Another thing that has been going on with credit cards, is that if you purchase something from overseas website, the credit card company charges you 1-3% for a money exchange/conversion fee...
credit card companies sent out a letter to cardholders informing people about this, but i am sure very few actually read it.
I ran into this when i purchased some software from European company and saw the additional CC charge.
Other interesting schemes, is when you use a pre-pay affinity card, they have fine print, where they deduct like $1 per month as a service fee, and other per transaction charges that drain the amount put in faster.
