No, not that. The accept credit card for business accounts they know previously, but never from private people. As credit card transactions usually incur a charge (either directly or indirectly) for the recipient, which is why in the UK some smaller shops shops and businesses set a minimum transaction limit, below which they either decline the transaction, or apply a processing charge. Suspect the same applies elsewhere...
No, that would be directly illegal in Spain. They can't apply extra charges nor different prices, nor reject the transaction once the have the sign "credit cards accepted" on the door. And if that were the reason, they would accept cards for larger purchases. My guess is that they have been bitten and don't trust the system. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
