Reply to comment by ThatOneGuy308 in ELI5: Why is it that, at some gas stations, it’s cheaper to pay with cash instead a credit card? by tgjj530

Debit cards are still generally authorized on the credit card network and are subject to transaction fees (Visa and MC mostly)

While this is true, the fees for debit cards are usually smaller than the fees from credit companies, so it's still preferable to credit for a lot of businesses.
