It used to be that retailers have a cash price and a regular price (credit price). Most appliances store such as SM offer lower prices when items are paid in cash. Not anymore.

When using your credit card, there must only be one price for both cash and credit card payments. Surcharging or additional charge when paying using credit card is prohibited. Each product or service being sold must display only one price tag and should be VAT inclusive.

For reference, please refer to DTI Department Order No. 10 Series of 2006.
