according to a search, Intuit had 18,200 employees on July 31, 2023. Clearly one of these employees could figure out how to pass along the fee like my town does on paying taxes online. I have asked this question several times and come with the realization that quickbooks clearly wants the cc processing fees and giving the customer the option to pay either way without paying any fee would cost them money.  Telling a business to add a line item with the fee (which is really the fee plus sales tax plus the fee to run the fee with the tax) isn't very quick and maybe quickbooks needs a new name.
