As a result of Visa's continued high cost of payments, a surcharge is being added to Visa credit card payments in Singapore.\n\"With the rapidly changing payments landscape around the world, we anticipate a future that is less card-centric in the coming years, and we will continue innovating on behalf of customers to add and promote faster, cheaper and more inclusive payment options to our stores across the globe.\"\nST has contacted Visa for comment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1120,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":["V"],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":43,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[{"id":5497416,"gmtCreate":1628697210988,"gmtModify":1663232240631,"authorId":3586348899512468,"author":{"id":3586348899512468,"authorId":3586348899512468,"name":"Rubenjorge","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7212290f00555a41812076617d03c5af","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":896592259,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Didn't see such news.","text":"Didn't see such news.","html":"Didn't see such news.","likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"subComments":[],"verified":10,"allocateAmount":0,"commentType":"valid","coins":0,"score":0},{"id":5485934,"gmtCreate":1628610871951,"gmtModify":1663232190638,"authorId":3582028189369150,"author":{"id":3582028189369150,"authorId":3582028189369150,"name":"H0KIT","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a8758340a08196056f8bc1e54805193","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":896592259,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"noticed this too late. <u>lol</u>","text":"noticed this too late. <u>lol</u>","html":"noticed this too late. <u>lol</u>","likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"subComments":[],"verified":10,"allocateAmount":0,"commentType":"valid","coins":0,"score":0},{"id":5500240,"gmtCreate":1628728177321,"gmtModify":1663232252237,"authorId":3566708407027699,"author":{"id":3566708407027699,"authorId":3566708407027699,"name":"SPGan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6083b368bbaa45b37387ff6be93c3c47","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":896592259,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"?","text":"?","html":"?","likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"subComments":[],"verified":10,"allocateAmount":0,"commentType":"invalid","coins":0,"score":0},{"id":5484473,"gmtCreate":1628603348254,"gmtModify":1663232183744,"authorId":3561259559295872,"author":{"id":3561259559295872,"authorId":3561259559295872,"name":"SquareGuy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c4aa86e9311a7ff0643a2e9f93645a8c","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":896592259,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"sold !","text":"sold !","html":"sold !","likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"subComments":[],"verified":10,"allocateAmount":0,"commentType":"invalid","coins":0,"score":0}],"hasMoreComment":true,"orderType":2}
