Debit cards poised to get much more expensive

According to this LA times article (HT: qualia8):

The bottom line is that banks stand to lose more than $10 billion a year in merchant fees and more than $6 billion in overdraft fees. They'll be looking to make it up somewhere — and it's likely to be from the mainstream debit card users, not just the sloppy ones.


More incentive to switch to a lower-friction medium of exchange.
