Smith’s stops accepting Visa credit cards due to transaction fee dispute

(Francisco Kjolseth | Tribune file photo) . The Smith's grocery at 980 E. Fort Union Blvd. in Midvale remains open despite going through a significant transformation in which in part large windows will open up the front of the store along with numerous other features. Once the project is complete in mid-April it will be the most up-to-date and unique store in the system.

You’ve probably seen signs warning shoppers of the upcoming change at your local Smith’s Food & Drug. As of today, the grocery store chain stopped accepting Visa credit cards due to a dispute over transaction fees, FOX 13 reports.

Smith’s will still accept Visa debit cards, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, cash, checks, cards from SNAP and WIC programs, MasterCard debit cards and health savings account cards.

Smith’s, a banner brand of The Kroger Co., operates 55 stores in Utah.
