The bill also enables the commission to intervene should it wish on surcharging standards, surcharging practices, and could set standards to make sure that merchants aren't over-recovering on their costs. It's quite reasonable when you see it: sometimes merchants are charging a surcharge where they face a higher fee and it seems reasonable to allow them to pass that on to consumers because some networks are more expensive to use than others. But the commission will have the power to intervene if they see abusive practices evolve in this area. Now the commission has the flexibility in how it uses any merchant surcharging standards to achieve that. But the flexibility is likewise subject to constraints and procedural requirements.
