It is against New York state law for businesses to impose a surcharge for paying by card. They are allowed to provide a discount for paying with cash, but it is illegal for them to charge more than the posted price for paying by card.

How about if they have a little sign that says the posted price reflects a 3% cash discount?

Every sign I’ve seen says prices are incorporating a discount. You can forgo the discount by paying with a credit card at your discretion.
